For each question, there are four choices marked A, B C and D. You should decide on the best choice, then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Questions 46-49 are based on the following passage. Most sore throats are caused by an infection which treatment with antibiotics cannot cure. But with simple remedies the 3 / 78 patient normally gets better in 4 or 5 days. Tonsillitis, however, usually starts with a sore throat which causes pain on swallowing. With children and some adults there may be a fever and the patient is obviously not feeling well. It may be possible to see white spots on the back of the throat. The neck may also swell, both of which are the normal response to infection. Sometimes a sore throat may occur with the common cold, and with influenza there may be dryness of the throat, pain on coughing and loss of voice. TREATMENT Aspirin: To help relieve the pain on swallowing and (if there is one) the fever, use aspirin tablets dissolved in water, so that the patient can gargle before swallowing. Repeat the treatment every 4 hours. Drink: Encourage the patient to drink plenty of liquids. Food: Food should not be forced on a patient who does not want to eat. Steam: If there is pain in the throat on coughing, breathing in steam may help. CHILDREN Young children, who may not be able to gargle, should be given aspirin dissolved in water every 4 hours at the right dose for their age. At one year: a single junior aspirin. At five years: half an adult aspirin. At eight years: one whole adult aspirin. WHEN TO SEE THE DOCTOR If the sore throat is still getting worse after 2 days. If the patient complains of earache. If the patient or parent is very worried. 46. According to the passage, it would appear that most sore throats _________. A. require an immediate visit to a doctor B. respond quickly to treatment with an antibiotic C. rarely turn out to be symptoms of serious illness D. result in tonsillitis even when treated 47.

What difference is there in the way adults and young children should be treated with aspirin? A. Young children should not be allowed to gargle with it. B. Adults should be given tablets to swallow whole. C. Young children should be given aspirin more often than adults. D. Adults should be given larger doses of aspirin than children. Section B (14 marks) There is one passage in this section with 10 questions. Go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on the Answer Sheet. For questions 50-55, mark Y (for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage; 4 / 78 N (for NO) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage; NG (for NOT GIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage. For questions 56-59, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage. In 1945 leaders from 51 countries met in San Francisco, California, and organized the United Nations (often called the UN). World War II had just ended. Millions of people had died, and there was destruction everywhere. People hoped they could build a future of world peace through this new organization. The United Nations has four main goals and purposes: 1. To work together for international peace and to solve international problems; 2. To develop friendly relations among nations; 3. To work together for human rights for everyone of all races, religions, and of both sexes; 4. To build a center where nations can work together for these goals. Today almost every country in the world is a member of the UN. Each country has signed an agreement that says: 1. All members are equal. 2. All members promise to solve international problems in a peaceful way. 3. No member will use force against another member. 4. All members will help the UN in its actions. 5.The UN will not try to solve problems within countries except to enforce international peace. Obviously, the United Nations has not been completely successful in its goals. There have been several wars since 1945. However, the organization has helped bring peace to some countries that were at war. It has helped people who left their countries because of wars. It has helped bring independence to colonies. The main United Nations organization is in New York City, but the UN has a ―family‖ of other related organizations all over the world. These organizations try to provide a better life for everyone. One example is UNICEF, an organization that provides food, medical care, and many other services for poor children wherever they live. Another example is the World Health Organization, which develops medical programs all over the world. There are thousands of UN workers in developing countries. They work as planners to increase production in farming and industry. They provide medical services, improve education programs, and spread scientific information. They develop programs that provide jobs and better living conditions. They help countries control their population growth. The United Nations also holds large international conferences, where people meet to discuss important world issues. One conference was about the uses and ownership of oceans. Another was about women. There are also International Years. In these special years, people work together to improve situations and solve problems. One year was the International Year of the Child. For centuries countries have fought each other, and powerful countries have taken control of weaker ones. It is very difficult to persuade nations to live together in peace. Nevertheless, the United Nations is attempting to do this. It is the only organization that unites the world in the search for peace. 50. The United Nations was organized at a meeting in California in 1945. 51. The United Nations works for international peace. 52. Kuwait is a member of the UNICEF. 53. The United Nations has its main organization in San Francisco. 54. The United Nations helped Algeria become independent. 55. UNICEF is an organization that helps save wildlife. 56. Each country in the UN has signed an agreement that says no member ______ against another member. 57. Despite its effort, the United Nations hasn’t been ______ in its goals. 58. People meet to discuss important world issues in ______ held by the United Nations. 5 / 78 59. The United Nations is ______ nations to live together in peace, though it is difficult. Section C (10 marks) In this section, there is one passage followed by 5 questions. Read the passage carefully, and then answer the questions in as few words as possible (not more than 10 words). Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet. Questions 60-64 are based on the following passage. A language is a system of sounds, gestures, or characters used by humans to communicate their ideas and feelings. There are about 4,000 spoken languages in the world. Some are spoken by millions of people. Other languages have only a few speakers. All languages have rules for forming words and for ordering those words in sentences. In written languages, meaning is expressed through a system of characters and rules for combining those characters. In spoken languages, meaning is expressed through a system of sounds and rules for combining those sounds. Many deaf people use sign languages, in which gestures do the work of the sound system of spoken languages. Word order is more important in English than it is in some other languages, such as Russian. The sound system is very important in Chinese and in many languages spoken in West Africa. Languages are always changing, but they change very slowly. People invent new words for their language, borrow words from other languages, and change the meanings of words as needed. For example, the English word byte was invented by computer specialists in 1959. the English word tomato was borrowed from Nahuatl, and American Indian language spoken in Mexico. The English word meat once referred to food in general. There are several major language families in the world. The languages in each family are related, and scientists think they came from the same parent family. Language families come in different sizes. The Austronesian family contains at least 500 languages, including Pilipino, Malay, and Maori. The Basque language, spoken in northern Spain, is the only member of its language family. The Indo-European language family contains 55 languages, including English, German, Spanish, Russian, and Hindi. Another language family is Sino-Tibetan, which includes Chinese, Burmese, and Tibetan. The Afro-Asiatic family includes Arabic, Hebrew, and Amharic. There are about 150 American Indian languages spoken today. These languages have many differences and have been divided into more than 50 language families. People learn languages by listening, copying what they hear, and using the language. Most children learn their first languages easily, and sometimes other languages as well. Adults often must work harder at learning a second language. Questions: 60. How many languages are spoken all over the world? 61. What are the language rules for? 62. How is meaning expressed in sign language? 63. What is more important in English compared with other languages? 64. Which language is the only member of its language family? 6 / 78 Section D (12 marks) In this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully and complete the summary below by choosing a maximum of three words from the passage to fill in each of the spaces, 65-70. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet. . Questions 65-70 are based on the following passage Welcome to “Software World” --- bringing you the very latest information on what is currently available on CD-ROM. Are you a director or producer looking for an unusual actor to play a part in a new movie project, or with that special look for a new commercial on TV? OK. The usual procedure would be to contact a theatrical agency, who would try and sell you the idea of using one of the actors listed on their books. Books? Too old-fashioned for you? Then get yourself a copy of this latest electronic database called “The Electronic Curtain”. The brainchild of casting agent Fred Harkney of the Better Talent Agency, he says he got the idea of an actor’s directory from his son playing computer games. Noting that junior had to type in the details of the characters in his favorite game, he realized he could do the same for the actors he represents. Eventually, he came to include information on nearly three quarters of the approximately 34,000 actors registered and looking for work in Britain. With some theatrical agencies boasting that they represent over 500 performers, the need for this product is not hard to fathom. It can be a nightmare trying to remember just which actor has done what, or just what an actor can do. The database lists details of over 5,500 actors: TV shows they have appeared in, special skills they possess --- everything down to the color of their eyes and other distinguishing physical features. By entering the details of the type of person you are looking for, the database quickly locates only those persons with the particular qualities requested. One problem though, is that many actors feel it is too impersonal, and they could be missing out on much needed auditions for parts in theatrical shows. On the other hand, it might just get them that elusive job. The days of nervous nail-biting while waiting around to give an audition could well and truly be over. And all because of a small plastic disk. For product details ring this number now: 0171-379-60000. Summary: An electronic database giving information on nearly (65) ______ the 34,000 actors registered and looking for work in Britain, is now available on CD-ROM. Some (66) ______ have over 500 actors on their books and it is difficult to remember all their details. The database lists information on over 5,500 actors and can be searched for details such as past (67) ______ they have appeared in, special skills they might have, and even the color of their eyes. The database can quickly locate persons with (68) _____ and, although some actors feel it is (69) ______ to be of much use, it is certain to change the way actors are chosen for parts in films, plays and shows. Ring the following telephone number for further (70) _____: 0171-379-6000. Part IV Cloze (15 minutes, 15 marks) Section A (5 marks) There are 5 blanks in the passage.

Part V Translation (15 minutes, 15 marks) confident Section A (8 marks) Translate the underlined sentences of the following passage into Chinese. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet. After my mother passed away, my dad tried even harder to stay healthy and active. Every morning, until the weather turned too cold, he swam in the turquoise pool in the complex where he lived. (86) Each day, no matter how he felt, he swam one more lap than the previous day, just to prove there was always room for improvement. Every few days he reported the new number of laps to honest me, pride edging his voice. By his late seventies, in spite of swimming and working six days a week, my dad had noticeably dwindled in strength and energy. By age eighty-one he was in poor health and had to retire. (87) He pretended he didn’t need to lean heavily on me for support as we walked slowly, and I pretended not to notice. His mind was clear, but congestive heart problems and disabling arthritis had worn him down. One day he said, “In case of an emergency, I do not wish to be kept alive by any extraordinary means. I’ve signed an official paper to this effect.” He smiled his wonderful, broad grin and said, “I’ve been blessed to have had your mother as my wife and you as my only child, and I’m ready to go.” Less than a month later he had a heart attack. In the emergency room, he again reminded his doctor and me of his wishes, but I couldn’t imagine, in spite of this latest crisis, that he wouldn’t always be saying, “Have I told you yet today that I adore you?” (88) He was miserable in intensive care; tubes seemed to come from every opening. But my dad still had his sense of humor, asking me, “Does this mean we can’t keep our lunch date tomorrow?” His voice faltered. “I’ll be here to pick you up and we’ll go someplace special,” I answered, a lump in my throat. (89) Dad refused to look at me for the first time in his life and turned toward the blank green wall next to his hospital bed. There was a painful silence between us. He said, “I don’t want you to remember me like this. Promise me you won’t, darling! And please go now --- I’m so miserable.

However, it seems that e-mail has yet to revolutionize office communications .According to communicate ions analyst Richard Metcalf, some offices have actually seen an increase in paper as increase in paper as a result of e-mail.‖ Information in the form of e-mail messages now floods our computer screens. These messages can be distributed in the hundres.For those secretaries whose books ask them to print 18 / 78 out all their e-mails and leave them in their intrays, this means using up a great deal of paper every month ,‖Metcalf says. Metcalf has found that because some e-mails get lost in cyberspace, as are increasingly likely to be asked by clients and colleagues to send all important documents both by e-mails and by fax or ―snail mail‖-though the post .This highlightsafuther postential problem with e-mail in today’s offices-it is taking up time rather than saving it. ―With e-mail, communication is much easier ,but there is also more room for misunderstrandings,‖says psaychologist Dr David Lewis Generally ,much lsee care is take with e-mails than with letters or faxes and the sender will probably print the the documents and reread it before putting it in an envelope or sending it by fax. More worrying is still the increase misuse of e-mail for sending ―flame-mail‖ –abusive or inappropriate e-mail messages .Recent research in several companies suggests that aggressive communications like this are on the increase .E-mail has become the perfect medium for expressing workplace frustration because is so instant. E-mail can also be a problem in order ways .Staff all too often make the mistake of thinking that the condense of an e-mail ,like things said over the phone ,are private and not permanent. But it is not only possible for an employer to read all your e-mails, it is also perfectly legal-mail messages can be traced back to their origin for a period of at last two years , so you might want to rethink e-mailing your frustrations about your job to your friends. The advice is to keep personal e-mails out of the office . It goes without saying that e-mail exists to make life easier, and if used correctly, it is an invaluable tool for business of all sizes.

Section B(10 marks) In this section, there is one passage followed by five incomplete sentences. Read the passage carefully, and then complete the sentences in a maximum of there words for each blank. Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet. Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage. It is well known that some cultures prefer sons to daughters. In contrast, surveys have revealed that some people would rather have a daughter than a son. Apparently, each of these preference has its explanation in the local culture . Around the world , people who prefer sons have similar reasons .In many countries , sons are valued because they can work and contribute to the family income . Also , sons will be able to support their parents when the parents are old . In some cultures , sons are important because they enable the family name to continue for another generation . This is because the wife in these cultures takes her husband’s family name , and more or less ―belongs ‖to the husband’s family . In addition , having a daughter can sometimes 20 / 78 cause difficult for a family . In India , for example , having a daughter can be a burden because the family has to pay a dowry when the girl gets married . Generally ,people think traditional cultures are the ones in which boys are preferred . Research seems to support this belief . However , according to a survey conducted in 2000, people in the Czech Republic , Lithuania , Portugal , and the Caribbean prefer to have daughters . The researchers said that parents in these societies do not need to have the same economic situation that exists in other countries , so they do not need to have a son to help make money . Instead , families in these countries want daughters for emotional reasons . Many mothers think they will have a better relationship with a daughter than a son , for example . In addition ,they think daughters will take better care of them when they are old . In Japan , a similar trend has emerged . This might come as a surprise to some , because only one generation ago , the Japanese favored sons . In 1982 , over half of Japanese couples surveyed would want a boy if they could have only one child . A survey done in 1997 , on the other hand , found that 75 percent wanted a girl ! Some Japanese couples say they want to have daughters because they think daughters are cuter and easier to raise . Japanese couples also worry about being taken care of when they are old . If they have to live with their children when they are very old , many Japanese parents would want to live with a daughter . ―A sons wife would be a stranger and harder to ask for help ,‖ one Japanese mother said . Critics warn that preference for a daughter is just as bad as preference for a son . ―Instead of valuing children for the social roles they are expected to fill , parents must learn to value children as individuals ,‖ critics say . when that is the case, parents will be equally pleased with a son or daughter . Questions: 51. The reasons that parents prefer to have sons are to continue____ , to Help earn money for the family , and to support the parents in their old Age . 52. Japan’s preference for daughters now is quite____ because not long ago The preference was for sons . 53. In some developing countries , parents value boys more than girls mainly 21 / 78 for _____ . 54 . In India , parents receive _______ when their sons get married . 55. Critics maintain that children should be treated by their parents as ___. Section C (10 marks ) In this section ,there is one passage followed by five questions . Read the passage carefully and then answer each of the questions in a maximum of 10 words . Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet . Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage. At least 600,000 jobs could disappear in the UK this year , according to a report by a personnel managers’ professional body . The Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development says even those who escape redundancy will face pay freezes .It says that while total unemployment will not hit three million , the time between New Year and Easter will be the worst for job losses since 1991 . According to official statistics , there were 1.86 million people out of work in the UK in October , 2008. This figure was the highest since 1997 , taking the overall unemployment rate to 6 percent . David Frost of the British Chamber of Commerce says , ―It is the worst year . Companies are in survival mode .‖ The CIPD , which represents managers and personnel staff , issued its gloomy forecast a day after children’s retailer Adams joined a growing list of well known chains applying for bankruptcy protection .Chief economist John Philpott said , ―In the face of some skepticism , the CIPD warned that 2008 would the UK’s worst year for jobs in a decade . It was , but in retrospect it will be seen as merely the slow –motion prelude to what will be the worst year for jobs in almost two decades . The CIPD’s annual barometer forecast is that the UK economy will shed at least 600,000 jobs in 2009 .Overall ,the 18-month period from the start of the recession in mid-2008 until the end of 2009 will witeness the loss of around three quarters of a million jobs , equivalent to the total net rise in employment in the preceding three years .‖ Mr Philpott said job losses were likely to continue into 2010 ,taking the final toll to about one million . The CIPD also surveyed 2,600 workers and found that more than one in four did not expect a pay rise next year ,while others feared wage cuts . 22 / 78 The institute’s reward adviser ,Charles Cotton ,said ,‖Employees are realistic about their pay prospects . Against this backdrop ,employers will need to work hard to find new ways to motivate their employees to perform .‖ ―Financial incentives and targeted investment in training and development could be effective ways to do this ,‖ he added . ―More than ever , this is a time where organizations need to engage in an open and straightforward communication with their staff , clearly explaining the reasons for any difficult measures that will affect them ,‖ he said . ―This will help preserve staff loyalty and engagement even during times when unpopular decisions need to made .‖ Questions: 56. According to the passage , which will be the worst year for job losses In the UK ? 57. What kind of organization is the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development ? 58. What are many British companies now struggling for ? 59. What does the CIPD advise British employers to do under the present circumstances? 60. Why does Charles Cotton suggest that employers communicate with their straight—forwardly ? Section D (10 marks) In this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully, and then complete the summary below by choosing a maximum of three words from the passage to full in each of the blanks. Remember ton write the answers on the answer sheet. Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage. Everyone knows about pollution in the environment. Water, air, and land are all polluted. This means that pollution is everywhere .Now, scientists are looking inside our bodies to find out about internal pollution. In 2003, the Environmental Working Group studied nine people to measure the chemicals in there bodies. These nine people had an average of 53 cancer-causing chemicals in their bodies .They also had average of 62 chemicals that can harm babies in pregnant women .Even though a lot of chemicals were found in human bodies , the chemicals were found in small amounts .The amounts were small enough that they were probably 23 / 78 not hurting the people . However, scientists are worried because most of these chemicals were created by humans. Most of these chemicals did not exist 75b years ago. This proves that we have not only polluted the world – we have polluted our own babies! How dose this pollution get into our bodies? We come into contact with many chemicals everyday .for example, everyone use soap, skin lotion, and shampoo. However, few people know that these products contain harmful chemicals, some of which may cause memory loss. Chemicals known as DEA(diethanolamine) and TEA(triethanolamine) may seep into the skin and stop us from absorbing a helpful nutrient called ―choline‖. Choline is a nutrient that plays a crucial role in the memory cell making progress in the developing brain. Some people worry that every time we wash our hair, we are decreasing our memories. Everyone knows they should brush their teeth regularly, but recent research has shown that some toothpastes can cause cancer. Fluoride is a key ingredient in many toothpastes. However, studies show that fluoride dose not really protect our teeth. In fact, fluoride has been connected with bone cancer and other diseases. While we are trying to save our smiles, we could be damaging our health. Women are probably exposed to more chemicals then men because they use more beauty products. Recently, harmful chemicals are called ―phthalates‖. Studies on animals have shown that phthalates can damage the liver, the kidneys, and the lungs. Cosmetic companies say the amounts of phthalates in their products are safe. But consumer protection groups disagree. They say some women try to look beautiful, the more they could be harming their health. In a futuristic story by Ray Bradbury, a man found a pristine stream on a new planet. When he drank from the stream, he died! Why? His body was so polluted that pure water was a position to him! Perhaps that is only science fiction, but it reminds us to take care of our bodies. We must find ways to reduce the pollution we absorb. Summary: Like our polluted environment, our bodies are no longer pollution-free. Scientists now know that there is pollution in our bodies. On (61) , we have 53 cancer-causing chemicals in our bodies. Even fluoride (62) with bone cancer and other diseases. Some common cosmetics contain small amounts of chemicals, which seep into our (63) when we use these products. They prevent us from absorbing the (64) our bodies need. So, it is (65) that we find ways to reduce the amount of chemicals in our bodies. We should remind our friends and families to take care of their bodies.

Embroidery (刺绣) is a brilliant pearl in Chinese art .(81) From the magnificent Dragon Robes worn by emperors to today’s fashions, embroidery adds a great deal of pleasure to our culture and our lives. The oldest embroidery on record in China dates from the Shang Dynasty. Embroidery in this period symbolized social status. (82) It was not until later on, as the national economy developed, that embroidery entered the lives of the common people. After the Zhou Dynasty, the Han Dynasty witnessed a leap in both techniques and styles of embroidery. Embroidered objects ranged from the sun, the moon, stars, mountains dragons, and phoenixes to tigers, flowers and grasses, clouds and geometric patterns. Auspicious words were also fashionable. Both historic records and products of the time prove this. The cultural relics found in the Mawangdui Han Tomb are the best evidence of this unprecedented development in embroidery. In addition, embroidery unearthed from the Mogao Caves in Dunhuang , the ancient tombs in Turpan and northern Inner Mongolia ,further strengthen this observation . 25 / 78 (84) The Chinese word for embroidery is ―xiu‖, a picture or embroidery in five colours .It implies beautiful and magnificent things. Embroidery was an elegant task for ladies who were forbidden to go out of their homes. (85)It was a good pastime to which they could devote their intelligence and passion .

When rambunctious (无法无天) nine-year-old Max feels (48) ig by his busy single mum and her new boyfriend, and runs away (49) home , he finds himself on an island populated by huge, hairy, scary Wild Things. Here, he gets himself crowned king, and he and the monsters fight and play, and throw mud at each other (which the younger viewers will love). They return home. That’s it .And that’s your problem. As a film , I can’t (50) de it’s disappointing. Despite whimsical (异想天开) imaginative and heart-tugging moments, Jonze and co-writer Dave Eggers inevitably lose the wonderful subtlety (精妙之处) of Maurice sendak’s well-loved 338-word picture book just by (51) (spin) it out into a full-length feature. Enough already! We get this dysfunctional group of neurotic Wild Things (52) rep Max’s child’s eye view of grown-ups as comprehensible giants, both terrifying and loving. (53) , even the repetitive action and non-subtleties (54) ,make this feel more like family therapy than a fairy (55)t can’t destroy the film’ s haunting magic.

Section B(10 marks) The giant panda,the creature that has become a symbol of conservation ,is facing extinction. The major reason is loss of habitat, which has contitued despite the establishment of 14 panda reserves . Deforestation , mainly carried out by farmers clearing land to make way for fields as they move higher into the mountains,has drastically contracted the mammal’s range. The panda has 37 / 78 disappeared from much of central and eastern China, and is now restricted to the eastern flank of the Himalayas. Satellite imagery has shown the seriousness of the situation ; almost half of the panda’s habitat has been cut down or degraded since 1975.Worse ,the surviving panda population has also become fragmented; a combination of satellite imagery and ground surveys reveals panda “islands” in patches of forest separated by cleared land. The population of these islands has become isolated because the animals are loath to cross open areas .Just putting a road through panda habitat may be enough to split a population in two. The minuscule size of the panda populations worries conservationists. The smallest groups have too few animals to be viable, and will inevitably die out .The larger populations may be viable in the short term, but will be susceptible to genetic defects as a result of inbreeding. In these circumstances, a more traditional threat to pandas – the cycle of flowering and subsequent withering of the bamboo that is their staple food – can become literally species-threatening. The flowering prompts pandas to move from one area to another, thus preventing inbreeding in otherwise sedentary populations. In pandas, however, bamboo flowering could prove catastrophic,灾 难性的,because the pandas are unable emigrate. The latest conservation management plan for the panda, prepared by China’ s Ministry of Forestry and the World Wide Fund for Nature, aims primarily at maintaining panda habitats and ensuring that populations are linked wherever possible. This plan will change some existing reserve boundaries, establish 14 new reserves and protect or replant corridors-of forest between panda islands. Other measures include better control of poaching, reducing the degradation of habitats outside reserves, and reforestation. The plan is ambitious. Implementation will be expensive and will require participation by individuals ranging from villagers to government officials. 38 / 78 Question 61 to 65: Complete the summary with words from the passage, changing the form where necessary, only one word for each blank. The survival of the giant panda is being seriously (61) .This is largely because the overall size of their habitat has been reduced. As a result, pandas are more prone to problems and are unable to (62) around freely, following the growth cycles of (63) plant. A new plan aims to protect existing panda (64) and to join some of them together. This plan also involves reforestation and the creation of new reserves. To succeed, everyone, (65) both the government and individuals, will have to cooperate. Section C (10 marks) Honda has developed a way to read patterns of electric currents on a person’ s scalp as well as changes in cerebral blood flow when a person thinks about four simple movements-moving the right hand, moving the left hand, running and eating. 67 In a video shown at Tokyo headquarters, a person wearing a helmet sat still but thought about moving his right hand – a thought that was picked up by electrodes attached to his head inside the helmet. 68 Honda said the technology wasn’t quite ready for a live demonstration because of possible distractions in the person’s thinking. Another problem is that brain patterns differ greatly among individuals, and so about two to three hours of studying them in advance are needed for the technology to work. The company, a leader in robotics, acknowledged the technology was still at a basic research stage, with no immediate practical applications in the works. 69 Japan boasts one of the leading robotics industries in the world, and the government is pushing to develop the industry as a road to growth. Research on the brain is being tackled around the world, but Honda said its research was among the most advanced in figuring out ways to read brain patterns without having to hurt the person, such as embedding (植入) sensors into the skin . Honda 39 / 78 has made robotics a centerpiece of its image, sending Asimo to events and starring the walking, talking robot in TV ads. 70 “Our products are for people to use. It is important for us to understand human behavior, ” he said. “We think this is the ultimate in making a machine move.” Question 66:Choose the best answer according to the passage. 66. What does Honda say about its robot Asimo? A. It can detect a person’s way of thinking. B. It can imitate complex human movements. C. It is still in its experimental stage. D. It is ready for market distribution. Question 67 to 70: Choose the most appropriate of the following paragraphs that fit into questions 67 to 70 in the passage. A. “I’m talking about dreams today,” said Yasuhisa Arai, executive at the Honda Research Institute in Japan, the company’s research unit. “Practical uses are still way into the future.” B. Among the challenges for this brain technology is making the reading-device smaller so it can be portable, according to Honda. C. After several seconds, Asimo, programmed to respond to these brain signals, lifted its right arm. D. Honda succeeded in analysing these thought patterns, and then relayed them as wireless commands to Asimo, its human-shaped robot. Section D (10marks) Being an introvert is a bad thing, right? Well, a lot of people seem to think so, judging by the number of articles I’ve read about how to “cure” introversion. In response to these articles, I wrote The Introverts Strike Back, in which I argued that introverts can’t become extraverts, and they shouldn’t particularly want to. However, I’m not here to debate whether it’s better to be an introvert to 40 / 78 an extravert. The fact is, we all have to interact with both types of people every day. Regardless of which type you are, you can greatly improve your relationships by learning to get along better with people of the other type. Here are some tips for getting started. For Introverts: *Indicate to others when you’re busy. When an extravert sees you reading, writing, or maybe just thinking, he might assume that the only reason you are doing this is because you don’t have someone to talk to. So he thinks he’s doing you a favor by striking up a conversation, when he’s actually interrupting. To prevent this, be sure to give an indication that you’re in the middle of something and don’t want to socialise right now. This can be a visual sign or verbal. I know one person who tended to get a lot of visitors at work, and while he was actually an extravert, the frequent visits were slowing him down too much. He put a sign on his door saying “If I don’t make eye contact or respond to you, I apologize. I’m not trying to be rude, I just have a lot of work to do. Thank you for understanding.” While I don’t think many people need to go that far, it certainly worked! *Realise that extraverts often need to talk. Because extraverts are more in touch with the external world, for them talking is something as necessary as breathing. They might think out loud by bouncing their thoughts off other people, and they might need to chat in order to boost their energy. For an introvert, this can be the most difficult part of dealing with an extravert. The same conversation that energises the extravert also drains the introvert. However, keeping in mind that the extravert is not being intentionally malicious, the introvert has at least two options for handling this in a polite 41 / 78 way. They can patiently participate in the conversation, and then, when it’s over, recharge by being alone. Or they can cut off the conversation early by mentioning something else they need to be doing, or even by saying, “I’d like to help, but I’m not sure that I’m the right person for you to be talking to.” Of course, sometimes a conversation can be very enjoyable for an introvert, t a problem. in which case this isn’ For Extraverts: *Ask if someone is busy before spending time with them. If someone appears to be lonely, they might not be. Even if they’re just sitting there and don’t seem to be doing anything, they could be deep in thought and not want to be interrupted. If you need something, try to ask for it up front. Otherwise, look for clues that they might not feel like talking right now, such as lack of eye contact. If they seem uninterested, don’t take it personally. You just don’t know what you’re interrupting. *Understand what a draining effect a conversation can have on someone. No matter how fabulous a person you are, keep in mind that introverts simply prefer their internal world to the external world. They might start off with a fully changed battery, but while they’re engaged in conversation, that battery is steadily draining. How long it lasts depends on various factors, but be sure to keep an eye out for when they’re starting to lose interest. Be more to the point with introverts, and save most of your chatting for extraverts who will appreciate it more. Questions 71 to 74: Complete each of the following sentences with NO MORE THAN FIVE WORDS according to the passage. 71. Introverts are advised to to prevent interrupting when they are in the middle of something. 72. For extraverts, having a conversation with people can be as important as 42 / 78 73. An important clue that someone might not feel like talking with you right now is 74. It is necessary to remember that introverts tend to focus more on Question 75: Choose the best answer according to the passage. 75. What is the passage mainly about? A. Whether it is better to be an introvert or an extravert. B. How to get along with both introverts and extraverts. C. How to avoid embarrassment in conversations. D.

Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet. A soaring dropout rate is causing the United Stated to lose ground educationally to rivals abroad and is trapping millions of young American at the very margins of the economy. (76)The Obama administration acknowledges the problems in its new budget, which includes a ,50 million prevention programme, but solving this problem will require a lot more money and a comprehensive national strategy. The alarming scope of the dropout crisis is laid out by the Center for Labor Market Studies at Northeastern University in Boston and the Alternative Schools Network in Chicago. (77)Their study, which examines data from the 12 largest states, finds that 16 percent of people from the ages of 16 to 24 have dropped out. (78) The problem is especially pronounced among men, who make up more than 60 percent of those who change school nationally. The dropout problem hits minorities really hard. (79) Many of this country’s large urban high schools are rightly called 43 / 78 “dropout factories” because more students leave school than graduate. According to the study, state dropout rates are highest in the South, where Gerorgia (22.1 percent), Florida (20.1 percent) and Texas (18.5 percent) lead the way. (80) The dropout crisis presents a clear danger to national prosperity, but at the moment, states and localities are struggling to contain it with little help or guidance from the federal government. Congress, which is just waking up to this issue, can improve the situation by the putting its money and muscle behind proven programmes that have been shown to re-engage young people who have dropped out, and that keep at-risk children on track to complete their educations.

Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet. Where The Wild Thing Are “I didn’t set out to make a children’s movie,” says Being john Malkovich director Spike Jonze , “I set out to make a movie about childhood.” Indeed, like the recent alternative children’s book (46) adapt , Fantastic Mr Fox, this is more like an adult film (47) children’s clothing ,or rather in Jim Henson monster suits. When rambunctious (无法 无天) nine-year-old Max feels (48) ig by his busy single mum and her new boyfriend, and runs away (49) home , he finds himself on an island populated by huge, hairy, scary Wild Things. Here, he gets himself crowned king, and he and the monsters fight and play, and throw mud at each other (which the younger viewers will love). They return home. That’s it .And that’s your problem. As a film , I can’t (50) de it’ s disappointing. Despite whimsical (异想天开) imaginative and heart-tugging moments, Jonze and co-writer Dave Eggers inevitably lose the wonderful subtlety (精妙之处) of Maurice 大学英语站深情奉献! www.englishdata.cn 版权所有,侵权必 究! www.englishdata.cn 大学英语教学 59 / 78 sendak’s well-loved 338-word picture book just by (51) (spin) it out into a full-length feature.

Section B(10 marks) The giant panda,the creature that has become a symbol of 大学英语站深情奉献! www.englishdata.cn 版权所有,侵权必 究! www.englishdata.cn 大学英语教学 62 / 78 conservation ,is facing extinction. The major reason is loss of habitat, which has contitued despite the establishment of 14 panda reserves . Deforestation , mainly carried out by farmers clearing land to make way for fields as they move higher into the mountains,has drastically contracted the mammal’s range. The panda has disappeared from much of central and eastern China, and is now restricted to the eastern flank of the Himalayas. Satellite imagery has shown the seriousness of the situation ; almost half of the panda’s habitat has been cut down or degraded since 1975.Worse ,the surviving panda population has also become fragmented; a combination of satellite imagery and ground surveys reveals panda “islands” in patches of forest separated by cleared land. The population of these islands has become isolated because the animals are loath to cross open areas .Just putting a road through panda habitat may be enough to split a population in two. The minuscule size of the panda populations worries conservationists. The smallest groups have too few animals to be viable, and will inevitably die out .The larger populations may be viable in the short term, but will be susceptible to genetic defects as a result of inbreeding. In these circumstances, a more traditional threat to pandas – the cycle of flowering and subsequent withering of the bamboo that is their staple food – can become literally 大学英语站深情奉献! www.englishdata.cn 版权所有,侵权必 究! www.englishdata.cn 大学英语教学 63 / 78 species-threatening. The flowering prompts pandas to move from one area to another, thus preventing inbreeding in otherwise sedentary populations. In pandas, however, bamboo flowering could prove catastrophic,灾难性的,because the pandas are unable emigrate. The latest conservation management plan for the panda, prepared by China’s Ministry of Forestry and the World Wide Fund for Nature, aims primarily at maintaining panda habitats and ensuring that populations are linked wherever possible. This plan will change some existing reserve boundaries, establish 14 new reserves and protect or replant corridors-of forest between panda islands. Other measures include better control of poaching, reducing the degradation of habitats outside reserves, and reforestation. The plan is ambitious. Implementation will be expensive and will require participation by individuals ranging from villagers to government officials. Question 61 to 65: Complete the summary with words from the passage, changing the form where necessary, only one word for each blank. The survival of the giant panda is being seriously (61) .This is largely because the overall size of their habitat has been reduced. As a result, pandas are more prone to problems and are unable to (62) around freely, following the growth cycles of (63) plant. A new plan 大学英语站深情奉献! www.englishdata.cn 版权所有,侵权必 究! www.englishdata.cn 大学英语教学 64 / 78 aims to protect existing panda (64) and to join some of them together. This plan also involves reforestation and the creation of new reserves. To succeed, everyone, (65) both the government and individuals, will have to cooperate. Section C (10 marks) Honda has developed a way to read patterns of electric currents on a person’s scalp as well as changes in cerebral blood flow when a person thinks about four simple movements-moving the right hand, moving the left hand, running and eating. 67 In a video shown at Tokyo headquarters, a person wearing a helmet sat still but thought about moving his right hand – a thought that was picked up by electrodes attached to his head inside the helmet. 68 Honda said the technology wasn’t quite ready for a live demonstration because of possible distractions in the person’s thinking. Another problem is that brain patterns differ greatly among individuals, and so about two to three hours of studying them in advance are needed for the technology to work. The company, a leader in robotics, acknowledged the technology was still at a basic research stage, with no immediate practical applications in the works. 69 Japan boasts one of the leading robotics industries in the world, and the government is pushing to develop the 大学英语站深情奉献! www.englishdata.cn 版权所有,侵权必 究! www.englishdata.cn 大学英语教学 65 / 78 industry as a road to growth. Research on the brain is being tackled around the world, but Honda said its research was among the most advanced in figuring out ways to read brain patterns without having to hurt the person, such as embedding (植入) sensors into the skin . Honda has made robotics a centerpiece of its image, sending Asimo to events and starring the walking, talking robot in TV ads. 70 “Our products are for people to use. It is important for us to understand human behavior, ” he said.“We think this is the ultimate in making a machine move.” Question 66:Choose the best answer according to the passage. 66. What does Honda say about its robot Asimo? A. It can detect a person’s way of thinking. B. It can imitate complex human movements. C. It is still in its experimental stage. D. It is ready for market distribution. Question 67 to 70: Choose the most appropriate of the following paragraphs that fit into questions 67 to 70 in the passage. A. “I’m talking about dreams today,” said Yasuhisa Arai, executive at the Honda Research Institute in Japan, the company’s research unit. “Practical uses are still way into the future.” B. Among the challenges for this brain technology is making the reading-device smaller so it can be portable, according to Honda. C. After several seconds, Asimo, programmed to respond to 大学英语站深情奉献! www.englishdata.cn 版权所有,侵权必 究! www.englishdata.cn 大学英语教学 66 / 78 these brain signals, lifted its right arm. D. Honda succeeded in analysing these thought patterns, and then relayed them as wireless commands to Asimo, its human-shaped robot. Section D (10marks) Being an introvert is a bad thing, right? Well, a lot of people seem to think so, judging by the number of articles I’ ve read about how to “cure” introversion. In response to these articles, I wrote The Introverts Strike Back, in which I argued that introverts can’t become extraverts, and they shouldn’ t particularly want to. However, I’m not here to debate whether it’s better to be an introvert to an extravert. The fact is, we all have to interact with both types of people every day. Regardless of which type you are, you can greatly improve your relationships by learning to get along better with people of the other type. Here are some tips for getting started. For Introverts: *Indicate to others when you’re busy. When an extravert sees you reading, writing, or maybe just thinking, he might assume that the only reason you are doing this is because you don’t have someone to talk to. So he thinks he’s doing you a favor by striking up a conversation, when he’ s actually interrupting. To prevent this, be sure to give an indication that you’ 大学英语站深情奉献! www.englishdata.cn 版权所有,侵权必 究! www.englishdata.cn 大学英语教学 67 / 78 re in the middle of something and don’t want to socialise right now. This can be a visual sign or verbal. I know one person who tended to get a lot of visitors at work, and while he was actually an extravert, the frequent visits were slowing him down too much. He put a sign on his door saying “If I don’t make eye contact or respond to you, I apologize. I’m not trying to be rude, I just have a lot of work to do. Thank you for understanding.” While I don’t think many people need to go that far, it certainly worked! *Realise that extraverts often need to talk. Because extraverts are more in touch with the external world, for them talking is something as necessary as breathing. They might think out loud by bouncing their thoughts off other people, and they might need to chat in order to boost their energy. For an introvert, this can be the most difficult part of dealing with an extravert. The same conversation that energises the extravert also drains the introvert. However, keeping in mind that the extravert is not being intentionally malicious, the introvert has at least two options for handling this in a polite way. They can patiently participate in the conversation, and then, when it’s over, recharge by being alone. Or they can cut off the conversation early by mentioning something else they need to be doing, or even by saying, “I’d like to help, but I’m not sure that I’m the right person for you to be talking to.” 大学英语站深情奉献! www.englishdata.cn 版权所有,侵权必 究! www.englishdata.cn 大学英语教学 68 / 78 Of course, sometimes a conversation can be very enjoyable for an introvert, in which case this isn’t a problem. For Extraverts: *Ask if someone is busy before spending time with them. If someone appears to be lonely, they might not be. Even if they’re just sitting there and don’t seem to be doing anything, they could be deep in thought and not want to be interrupted. If you need something, try to ask for it up front. Otherwise, look for clues that they might not feel like talking right now, such as lack of eye contact. If they seem uninterested, don’t take it personally. You just don’t know what you’re interrupting. *Understand what a draining effect a conversation can have on someone. No matter how fabulous a person you are, keep in mind that introverts simply prefer their internal world to the external world. They might start off with a fully changed battery, but while they’re engaged in conversation, that battery is steadily draining. How long it lasts depends on various factors, but be sure to keep an eye out for when they’re starting to lose interest. Be more to the point with introverts, and save most of your chatting for extraverts who will appreciate it more.

Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet. A soaring dropout rate is causing the United Stated to lose ground educationally to rivals abroad and is trapping millions of young American at the very margins of the economy. (76)The Obama administration acknowledges the problems in its new budget, which includes a ,50 million prevention programme, but solving this problem will require a lot more money and a comprehensive national strategy. 大学英语站深情奉献! www.englishdata.cn 版权所有,侵权必 究! www.englishdata.cn 大学英语教学 70 / 78 The alarming scope of the dropout crisis is laid out by the Center for Labor Market Studies at Northeastern University in Boston and the Alternative Schools Network in Chicago. (77)Their study, which examines data from the 12 largest states, finds that 16 percent of people from the ages of 16 to 24 have dropped out. (78) The problem is especially pronounced among men, who make up more than 60 percent of those who change school nationally. The dropout problem hits minorities really hard. (79) Many of this country’s large urban high schools are rightly called “dropout factories” because more students leave school than graduate. According to the study, state dropout rates are highest in the South, where Gerorgia (22.1 percent), Florida (20.1 percent) and Texas (18.5 percent) lead the way. (80) The dropout crisis presents a clear danger to national prosperity, but at the moment, states and localities are struggling to contain it with little help or guidance from the federal government. Congress, which is just waking up to this issue, can improve the situation by the putting its money and muscle behind proven programmes that have been shown to re-engage young people who have dropped out, and that keep at-risk children on track to complete their educations.
