Stadtlander is determined to prove his innocence and continue the business.“People who live in the area have been very supportive,” he says.”And when this is over,I want my wine back.”

21.Stadtlander was accused because________.A.be offered too much wine for a guest B.be asked guests to bring their own wine C.be charged too much for the wine offered D.be sold wise to his guests without a license 22.In the 1980s,Stadtlander________.A.threw his original restaurant menu into the fine B.made his restaurant well-known around the world C.sought for a quiet life in the central part of the city D.opened one resyaurant after another home and abroad.23.IT turned out that Mr.and Mrs.Smith were________.A.two farmers B.two witnesecs C.hasbend and wife D.police officers 24.Nobuy Studtlander claimed that in the wine case they made________.A.$1.20 B.no money C.$100,000 D.a lot of money 25.Which of the following could be used as evidence against Stadtlander? A.What Stadtlander’s wife said B.The second bottle of wine

C.The records from the farmhouse.D.A receipt with the wine price.Passage Two Questions26 to 30 are based on the following passage.A recent study shows that sixteen out of every 100 American couoles have violent confrontations of one sort or another during the course of a year.In six of these cases there is severe kicking, biting, punching or hitting with objects.Almost four of every 100 wives are seriously beaten by their husbands.three of every 100 children are kicked or punched by their parents.More than a third of all brothers and sisters severely attack each other.As expected, the incidence of violence is highest among the urban poor(many of them minoroties).blue-collar workers, people under 20 or without religious beliefs, families with a husband who is jobless and those with four to six children.But the study also showed that violence occurs among wealthy families as well.Indeed, the wife of a university president once quietly called Straus, one of the sociologists who conducted the study, to ask what she could do about her husband, who often beat her.Straus suggested seeking assistance from marriage advisors.Steaus and his colleagues found out that there are various root causes that give rise to such behavior.“The reason are mixed –psychological, sociological, situational,” says Straus.“The husband, for example, may feel under particular stress because be has been out of work too long.Violence may also be an echo of the past,” Straus explains.“When Mummy gives her two-year-old a slap（巴掌）for putting something dirty in his mouth, he is learning from infancy that those who love you hit you.” Another reason may be the worsening economic situations.“If we have a real economos decline, It’s going to get worse,” economic situations.“If we have a real economic declines,it’s going to get worse,” says Gelles, one of Straus” colleagues.These sociologists have no easy answer to violence in the American family.While they welcome such move as the opening of shelters for beaten wives and the establishment of a National Center for Child Abuse and Neglect, they belive that there must be more basic attack on vilolence,including the reduction of “macho”（大男子主义）themes on the television,the outlawing of physical punishment in schools and perhaps even the wlimination of death senernces.As Straus explains,“Volence is an acceptable solution to problems in American society,And that is how it is used in families.26.Which of the following statements is true? A.More than a third of brothers attack sisters in American families.B.Almost four percent of husbands are seriously beaten by their wives.C.Six out of one hundred couples experience severe domestic violence.D.Six percent of American couples have some kind of domestic violence.27.The example concerning a university president’s wife shows that_________ A.domestic violence is found in well-to do families as well B.the incidence of violence is highest among urban families C.marriage advisons’ assistance is the best solution to violence D.domestic vilence exists regardless of age, race,and social status.28.What Gelles says shows that________.A.vilence is responsible for the decline of economy B.violence may be a reflection of one’s past experience C.violence is related to the economic situation of the time D.violence is the best form of emotional release for a husband 29.The word “outlawing” in line5 of the last paragraph means________.A.making something illegal B.freeing someone from prison C.learning something from law D.throwing someone out of court 30.According to the sociologists, it is impossible to curb domestic violence unless________.A.more shelters for beateb wives are opened B.children are protected by a National Center C.violence is not accepted as a solution to problems D.Americans get tougher with violent behaviors

Passage Three Qestions 31to35are based on the following passage.American scientists are developing an “intelligent” mabile phone capable of blocking incoming calls depending on the owner’s mood., Using “context aware”

Technology the “Sensay” phone will monitor calls and send back polite messages saying the user may be contacted later.A research team at the Institute for Complex Engineering Systems at Carragie Mellon University in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, are developing body temperature and electrical skin monitors to help the device understand the emotional state of its user.If the phone senses that the user is busy —for instance, involved in a conversation—it might block an incoming call and turn it onto voicemail.The phone would send back a text message saying the user is unavailable, but advising that id the matter is urgent the caller can try again in three minutes.If a call from the same person came in again, the phone would put it through.The researchers are interested in four basic different states—busy and not to be interrupted, physically active, idle,and “normal.” Most people are said to change between these states,an average of 6 to 12 times a day.Professor Asim Smailagic, a leading member of the Carnegic Mellon team, told The Engineer magazine.”Today’s computers are pretty dumb compared with the device.We got to work at the beginning of May and since then have been improving it.The next stage is to make it smarter, adding various intellingence systems so it can learn about the user.The phone also employs four primary sensons—two microphones to pick up conversations and monitor local noise.a light detector and an acceleromster（加速度计）.The light sensor shows if the phone is being carried in a bag or pocket ,while the accelerometer determines whether the user is walking,running or standing still, In the sensor box, phone is being carried in a bag or pocket, while the accelerometer determites whether the user is walking,running or standing still,In the future,the sensor box,phone and personal organizer will be combined into one device.”

31.According to the passage, the “Sensay” phone is capable of ________.A.showing body temperature B.blocking unwanted calls C.detecting the owner’s mood D.sensing the caller’s mood 32.The second paragraph mainly tells us ________.A.where the intelligent phone is developed B.how the new phone is going to function C.whether the researchers failed in their experiment D.why the researchers failed in their experiment 33.Accorfing to Professor Smailagic, the detector will show________.A.where the mobile phone is B.where the mobile phone user is C.whether the mobile phone user is busy D.whether the mobile phone is within reach 34.the word “it” in line 5 of paragraph 4 refers to________.A.the phone B.the monitor C.the computer D.the light sensor 35.The best title for this passage is ________.A.How to Tell a Person’s Mood B.How to Block Incoming Calls C.Sensay Your Personal Organizer D.Sensay The Futuer Mobile Phone

Choose the closest paraphrased version after each of the following sentences or the italicized part.Write the letter corresponding to your choice on the answer sheet.(1 point each, 10 points in all)31.By definition, heroes and heroines are men and women distinguished by uncommon courage, achievements, and self-sacrifice made most often for the benefit of othersexplanation-example

Every single student that applies for a class or course online has certain expectations and they are often extremely high.Unfortunately for most individuals, they will be disappointed.It is a fact that the majority of individuals believe that they will actually enjoy every aspect of their course.The truth is that there is very little in a degree to inspire until an individual actually completes the course and is awarded the degree or certificate that could change his or her life.This is no different with an online education and, in fact, the disappointment may be more obvious because they may face extra difficulties in an online course.Online education expectations are often incredibly high, as previously stated, in terms of what an individual can get from it as well as the manageability of the content itself.However, although an individual will ultimately be proven right about what he or she can get from it, this will not be the case for manageability.Most online education courses are anything but manageable for those who decide to take them.The level of work would be the same as any other degree or qualification course, but an individual is expected to manage it on his or her own instead of having a tutor or lecturer there to remind him or her about assignments and deadlines.Time management is extremely important, but the nature of these individuals’ life often makes it impossible to manage without feeling the stresses and strains of the burden.It is important to be realistic with your expectations concerning an online education course, but many are completely unrealistic.If you read any of the accounts from students that have already taken and may have even passed an online education course, many will speak in glowing terms;but you should also read between the lines.They claim that their expectations will ultimately be fulfilled in terms of the long-term benefits.However, in the short term they may say they found it difficult to cope with the workload, the lack of time that they actually had to complete it, an unsupportive employer and so on.This last point may not be an issue if you are doing it to advance yourself within your current workplace, but there will otherwise be some sort of resentment bubbling under the surface and that can indeed make your life a misery for a little while.If you expect it and prepare for it then it should not bother you too much, and if the resentment does not come then so much the better!In terms of your own expectations, the best attitude to have is not to go in with any at all.If you do not expect anything then you may be pleasantly surprised.It can be difficult to fit an online education in with personal commitments, such as a family to look after or a job to go to every day whilst trying to study.It does take a lot of effort, but if you do not expect it to be easy or expect that you will just be able to do it without the balance of your life being upset as a result, then you will probably find that you do get a sense of satisfaction from it!Similarly, if you expect the worst then you will probably be pleasantly surprised!Managing your expectations can be difficult, but do not let them get the better of you!46.The manageability is more difficult in online courses than in any other course because ______.A.online courses require higher level of work B.online courses bring much more assignments C.online course takers have no way to contact their lecturers D.online course takers have to rely on themselves for management 47.According to the passage, one may not have the problem of an unsupportive employer if ______.A.he is fully prepared to deal with any resentment from his boss B.his online education will be beneficial to his current workplace C.his expectations will be fulfilled in the form of long-term benefits D.he can discuss the issue width his boss openly and bravely on the table 48.According to the writer of this passage, one’s satisfaction in online education might come from ______.A.high expectations B.diligent efforts C.a realistic attitude D.a proper balance 49.In the last sentence of this passage, the phrase “get the better of you” probably means “______”.A.make a fool of you B.take advantage of you C.get too fancy for you to imagine D.become too high for you to control 50.This passage is written mainly for the purpose of ______.A.inspiring its readers to fulfill their expectations through hard work B.persuading its readers to be more practical with their personal commitments C.informing its readers about the disadvantages of the courses they take online D.preparing its readers for the hardships they may encounter in online education

第 3 页 In recent years many companies of the world have been faced with the problem of how to make their workers more productive.Some experts claim the answer is to make jobs more varied.But do more varied jobs lead to greater productivity? There is evidence to suggest that while variety certainly makes the worker’s life more enjoyable, it does not actually make him work harder.As far as increasing productivity is concerned, variety is not an important factor.Other experts feel that giving the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is important and there is no doubt that this is true.The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot easily be given in the modern factory with its complicated machines which must be used in a fixed way.Thus while freedom of choice may be important, there is usually very little that can be done to create it.Another important consideration is how much each worker contributes to the product he is making.In most factories the worker sees only one small part of the product.Some car factories are now experimenting with having many small production lines rather than one large one, so that each worker contributes more to the production of the cars on his line.It would seem that not only is the degree of workers’ contribution an important factor, therefore, but it is also one we can do something about.To what extent does more money lead to greater productivity? The workers themselves certainly think this is important.But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is so boring.Money just lets them enjoy their spare time more.A similar argument may explain demands for shorter working hours.Perhaps if we succeed in making their jobs more interesting, they will neither want more money, nor will shorter wirking hours be so important to them.21.The passage is mainly about how to ____.A.promote workers’ competition B.meet worker’s need for variety C.ensure workers’ right of choice D.improve workers’ performance 22.According to the writer, variety enables a worker to _____.A.derive more enjoyment from life B.work in his own way more freely C.fulfill his job requirements better D.undertake greater responsibilities 23.We learn from the passage that freedom of choice _____.第 4 页 A.can hardly function in a flexible manner B.can hardly lead to increased productivity C.is hardly seen as effective by companies D.is hardly available in the modern factory 24.It can be inferred from the passage that, compared with large production lines, smaller ones give workers ____.A.a greater variety of interesting tasks B.a stronger sense of accomplishment C.a better idea of the modern industry D.a clearer picture of essential factors 25.According to the writer, higher pay can _____.A.make tiring work more interesting B.make up for longer working hours C.help workers to live more happily D.help to create greater procuctivity

Passage Two

We live in a technological society.Almost every aspect of life in the modern world is influenced(for better or worse)by technology.Communications, transportation, manufacturing, mining and exploration, the service industries, medicine, agriculture all are dominated by methods and apparatus which are the results of technological advances.The basis of technology is science.without the fundamental discoveries and understanding provided by science, technology would be hit-or-miss(随意的)affair, lacking direction and making little progress.One can argue that our society is beginning to suffer from too much technology, but we will never return to the primitive life of our ancestors – technology is with us and it will remain with us.Just as it is important to study history so that we can appreciate how the world came to its present state, it is important to learn some of the basic concepts of science so that we can appreciate the role that technology plays in modern society.For without some knowledge of the scientific principles by which technology operates, one can neighter cope with technology nor assist in directing it into the proper channels.In recent times, we have had the general attitude that whatever is technologically possible should be done.It is now

第 5 页 becoming increasingly apparent that our scientific and technological progress has outstripped(超越)our capacity to perform or absorb everything that is possible.More and more, we weill have decisions to make: in what directions should the thrust of our new discoveries be made? The situation requires that we make intelligent decisions – decisions based in a knowledge and an understanding of what can be done, what will be the benefits, and what weill be the comsequences.Scientists do not make these decisions;people make them.It is therefore incumbent(义不容辞的)on every individual to acquire the basic knowledge that weill permit him to participate intelligently in directing the course of our technological advancement.26.According to the passage, technology can ____.A.produce bad effects on society B.suffer from hit-or-miss affairs C.influence the course of science D.restore life of the primitive age 27.According to the passage, one must learn basic concepts of science in order to ____.A.assist in directing science in a proper way B.contribute to the orientation of technology C.discover the progress of science in history D.find out about the existence of technology 28.Because the human capaity to perform or absorb everything that is possible has been outstripped, it is time for people to ____.A.slow down the development of technology B.reduce the role of science in modern times C.take a new point of view about technology D.reevaluate the lifestyle of human ancestors 29.According to the write, it is everyone’s responsibility to participate in deciding on ____.A.how fast scientific advancement should be B.how fast technological progress should be C.what to acquire and what to skip in science D.what to do and what to avoid in technology 30.The passage is mainly about _____.第 6 页 A.the influence of technology on modern society B.the importance of learning scientific principles C.the imp;act of scientific progress on civilization D.the difference between science and technology

Passage Three

Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on out interpesonal relationships.One strength of the human condition is our tendency to give and receive support from one another under stressful circumstances.Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties.Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to cope with major life changes and daily problems.People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties.Studies over a range of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, reveal that the presence of social support helps people fight off illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways.First, friends, relatives, and co-workers may let us know that they value us.Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others despite our faults and difficulites.Second, other people often provide us with informational support.They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them.Third, we typically find social companionship supportive.Engaging in leisure-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting us from our worries and troubles.Finally, other people may give us instrumental support – financial aid, material resources, and needed services – that reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope with our problems.31.We learn from the passage that interpersonal relationships are important because _____.A.they are essential to people’s social well-being.B.they arouse people's desire for communication C.they deal with problems in the informatoin era D.they are effective in curing a range of diseases 32.Research shows that people's physical and mental health _____.A.is related to stressful conditions B.is related to support from others
