Passage One

Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:

The last few days before Christmas passed quickly and it was soon Christmas Eve. That night when everyone went to bed, Bunny couldn ’t sleep. He still couldn ’t think of what he wanted his special Christmas present to be. He wondered how Santa would know what to bring him if he didn ’t know himself.

As he was sittingup in bed. Bunny heard a big noise on the roof and a sound downstairs. It was Santa Claus, he realized. Bunny jumped out of bed and raced down the hall to the stairs hoping to catch a glimpse of the old fellow before Santa departed for his next stop.

By the Time Bunny reached the bottom of the stairs, though, everything was again silent. Brightly wrapped presents were piled under the Christmas tree, but Santa was gone. A little disappointed, Bunny turned to climb back upstairs when he heard a cry.

“Hello ”, said Bunny, “Is somebody there?”

He was answered by another cry. Bunny looked around the big pile of presents to see what was making the noise. Right under the tree was a funny looking brown animal

with big feet and mournful eyes. Bunny might have mistaken the creature for a dog, if it hadn’t been for the antlers(鹿角)on his head.

“Are you a reindeer?”asked Bunny.

“Yes”, replied the brown creature with antlers, “my name is Ralph.”

“And you were pulling Santa’s sled?”

“I was nuntil I got air-sick,” replied Ralph, “Santa had to leave me here and go on with the other seven reindeer.”

“Isn’t it a bit unusual for a reindeer to get air-sick. I mean, isn’t flying what reindeer are famous for?”

“I’m afraid that I’ve always had a sensitive(敏感的)stomach when it comes to flying,” replied Ralph. “But everyone expected me to pull Santa’s sled, so when it was my turn I gave it a try. I’m afraid I just wasn’t cut out for the job. Now I’m stuck here and I don’t know how to get back to the North pole”.

“Well, if you like, you can stay with us as a friend,” said Bunny. As he made the offer, Bunny suddenly realized the special present he wanted from Santa was a new friend!

( )41. Why couldn’t Bunny fall asleep on Christmas Eve?

A) He was looking forward to seeing his special present.

B) He wanted to take a look at Santa when he came at night.

C) He was disturbed by a noise on the roof of his house.

D)He was thinking what present to ask from Santa.

( )42. Why did Bunny feel disappointed?

A) Santa left before he could have a look at him.

B) Santa didn’t bring the special present he wanted.

C) Everything was silent and there was no sign of Santa coming.

D) There was a pile of presents under the Chrismas tree but nothing for him. ( )43. What do we learn about reindeer from the passage?

A) They make big noises while they are flying.

B) They look like dogs except for the antlers.

C)They are all especially good at pulling sleds.

D) They suffer stomachaches when they take to the air.

( )44. Why didn’t Ralph go with the other seven reindeer?

A) He got stuck in the chimney.

B) Bunny asked him to stay.

C) He was air-sick.

D) He didn’t know how to get back to the North Pole.

( )45. This passage seems to tell us that .

A) Santa knows what present a child wants without even being told

B) reindeer are hired to bring presents to children on christmas Eve

C) if a child stays awake on christmas Eve, he could catch a glimpse of Santa

D) parents take great care when choosing Christmas presents for their children

Passage Two

Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage:

What will man be like in the future in 5, 000 or even 50, 000 years from now? We can only make a guess, of course , but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today. For man is changing slowly all the time.

Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches tall. Five hundred years is a relatively short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller.

Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deat deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain’s capacity. As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more and eventually we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a physical change too: the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.

Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time it is likely that man’s eyes will grow stronger.

On the other hand , we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.

But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald!

Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at!

( )46. Future man is likely to be different from us .

A). in quite a few ways B). in almost every way

C). in quite many ways D). in one or two ways

( )47. The reason for believing that future man will be different is that he .

A). has recently begun to chane B).began to change five hundred years ago

C).never stops changing D).never stops growing

( )48. Peple’s heads will eventually grow larger. This is because their brains .

A). will grow faster than at present B).will need more room than at present

C). will play an important part D). will be in constant use

( )49. Future man will probably .

A). have bigger eyes B). have to wear better glasses

C). see better D).get weaker eyes

( )50. Future man’s hair will .

A).fall out more often B).grow darker

C).stop growing completely D).get longer

Passage Three

Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:

Some luxury-car makers have already rolled out advanced stability-control systems that will automatically apply individual brakes to prevent skidding during an emergency. The other automakers will no doubt follow.

Technology is making driving easier in other ways. On the Chevrolet(雪佛兰牌汽车) Corvette, General Motors now offers “head-up”displays like those used in jet fighters. Speed, oil pressure and other important information is projected directly onto the windshield(挡风玻璃). Cadillac has a sophisticated night-vision system, which uses heat sensors and projects onto the windshield an infrared(红外线)image of objets-pedestrians, animals, other vehicles-that may lie beyond the range of headights.

To keep you awake on long trips, Mitsubishi has demonstrated a tiny dishboard video camera that’s trained on the driver if your eyes begin to droop, or you blink repeatedly with fatigue, the system will sound an alarm and suggest that you take a break.

Cruise-control systems are being upgraded dramatically. Mercedes-Benz and Lexus have both developed systems that send out radar beams to detect the car in front and adjust your speed before you get too close. The next step is a collision-avoidance radar that will judge closing speed and automatically apply the brakes when necessary. These systems will work in fog or heavy snow, helping to prevent accidents.

51. The phrase “roll out”in the sentence “Some luxury-car makers have already rolled out advanced stability-control systems” probably means .

A) to invent B) to manufacture

C) to develop D) to design

52. What does the word “train” in the sentence “To keep you awake on long trips, Mitsubishi has demonstrated a tiny dashboard video camera that’s trained on the driver.”Probably mean?

A) Educate B) cultivate

C) aim at D) work on

53. Which of the following cannot be inferred from the passage?

A) The other automakers will not follow the luxury-car makers on advanced stability-control systems.

B) Sometimes the drivers will miss the objects before their cars, though they have their headlights on.

C) A collision-avoidance radar will help the driver drive safely in fog or heavy snow.

D) Cruise-control systems help to prevent accidents.

54. What is the main idea of the passage?

A) The competition among automakers.

B) The development on cruise-control systems.

C) The technology on automobile.

D) Technology is making driving easier.

55. Which of the following is NOT true according to the author?

A) The night-vision system on a Cadillac can project the images of objects before the car onto its windshield.

B) Auto makers have used much high-tech in their cars.

C) The tiny dashboard video camera helps the drivers look clearly.

D) The collision-avoidance radar is used in a car to control speed.

57过多地暴露在太阳辐射下会伤害我们的皮肤。

58．格雷格(Greg)给我留下了深刻的印象，他想尽办法帮我们找到了一个解决办法。

59. 我确实知道，现在有不少年轻人有一边做作业，一边听背景音乐的习惯。

The servants were up very late on the Saturday evening, getting everything ready for the next day, and while they were busy they saw the glow (暗淡的光) of a fire start in the sky. By 3 o'clock on the Sunday morning, the glow had become so bright that one of the servants, Jane, woke her master to see it. Pepys went to the window to watch it. It seemed fairly far away, so after a time he went back to bed. When he got up in the morning, it looked as though the fire was dying down, though he could still see some flames. So he set to work to tidy his room and put his things back where he wanted them after the servants had cleaned everything. While he was doing this, Jane came in to say that she had heard that the fire was a bad one: three hundred houses had been burned down in the night and the fire was still burning. Pepys went out to see for himself. He went to the Tower of London and climbed up on a high part of the building so that he could see what was happening. From there, Pepys could see that it was, indeed, a bad fire and that even the houses on London Bridge were burning. Someone told him that the fire had started in a

Passage One Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage ＂Cool＂is a word with many meanings, Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed. The word has had many different meanings. ＂cool＂can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.when you see your favorite footballer. We all maximize the meaning of ＂cool＂You can use it instead of many words such as ＂new＂or ＂surprising＂. Here’s an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used . A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall they had visited. On one student’s paper was just the one sentence. ＂It’s so cool.＂Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt. But the story also shows a scarcity(贫乏)of words. Without ＂cool＂, some people have no words to show the same meaning . So it is quite important to keep some credibility. Can you think of many other words that make your life as colorful as the word ＂cool＂? I can. and I think they are also very cool. 1 .According to the passage,the word ＂cool＂has had . A. only one meaning B. only a few meanings C. many different meanings D.the same meaning 2.In the passage, the word＂express＂(Para. 2)means . A.see B.show C. know D. feel 3.If you are __ something. You may say ＂It’s cool.＂ A. interested in B. careful about C. afraid of D. angry about 4.The writer gives an example to show he is the way the word＂cool＂is used.

World of the Future Scientists think that wonderful things may come true in the future. Future means a time that is not yet here. It can be a short time from now or a long time from now. Some of the underwater wonders are almost ready to come true now. Others won't come tree, we think, until a long time from now. Some, of course, may never come true--but who knows for sure? They may. What are some of the wonders that may come true in the future? A world underground The green utopia (an ideally perfect place) underground is going to help us regain a more harmonious relationship between the often opposing sides of large-scale development and our ecosystem. The city may be called Alice City, from Alice's Adventure in the Wonderland, which offers a wonderful world that is almost as fantastical as that was described in the book. A large clear dome (圆顶), within an area of open parkland, leads into a multi-leveled structured metropolis of underground offices, housing, transportation and public areas. There will be everything to make the city as self-sufficient as possible including shopping malls, theatres and sports complexes in addition to facilities (contained in a separate structure) for power generation, heating and waste recycling. Apart from offering an almost limitless space for development, such underground development has many more attractive ecological advantages over traditional forms of housing. It is less disturbing than high rise development and therefore favorable in environmentally sensitive areas. Land above the complex can be set aside for parkland and recreational use. In towns or cities where pollution levels are high, air can be filtered through air pipes in the roof of an underground housing or industrial complex. A world underwater At the docks you step into a shiny metal submarine that is shaped like a shark. The door is closed behind you, and powerful engine starts to push. Down slides the submarine--like a shark diving. Deeper and deeper under the water. Soon all sunlight is gone. The headlights of the diving ship are turned on. Then, six miles below, you come to the sea bottom. From the diving submarine, you change to tiny jet boat and ride along close to the bottom of the ocean, almost as you would skim over the land in an air-plane. As you travel, you have fun looking out the window at the sights on the bottom of the ocean. You see strange fish and underwater mountains, cliffs, and valleys. But more than that--hotels and mining camps and farms and factories! A world in space Let's go back to dry land and take a future journey the other way-up instead of down. Huge rocket liners take you into space to visit the Moon Camp. You walk around on the moon in a special moon suit. You visit an observatory where a giant telescope looks far into space--farther than anyone has ever been able to see from Earth. You go deep down into one of the moon mines. After you have visited the moon, you visit the Mars Colony and the Venus Exploration Outpost. A new world on the Earth Let's go back to Earth. In the far, far future, girls--and boys, too--may be playing with dolls that look like the people of the planets visited by our spacemen. To control or run all kinds of toys, boys and girls may learn to use special computers --machines that answer questions and do arithmetic faster than you can blink. Bicycles and perhaps skates may be run by jet power, and a new thing to ride may be a small flying saucer. Imagine a race between them! There may be telepathy (心灵感应) helmets that send thought waves from your brain to that of your friend miles away. You just think a thought and your friend knows it! You can have secrets with each other that nobody else can turn in on! Robots There will be other surprises in the future. How would you like to have a robot playmate? Having robot playmates may not be-so much fun as it seems. But maybe a boy with a wrench (扳手) and a screwdriver can fix the robot so that it won't be too perfect! Food What about the food of the future? Scientists think that much of it will be artificial --made in factories from such surprising things as coal, limestone, air, and water. You don't think that ice-cream or cake or candy or even bread and potatoes made out of these things will taste very good? You may be wrong. These artificial things will be blended so skillfully by food chemists that the food of the future probably will be delicious. It probably will also be healthful because all the things that you need to live a long and healthy life will be put into it. A longer life Scientists of the future will almost certainly find other ways to make life last longer. They probably will find cures for most diseases. Hospitals will probably have "body banks" that can give you almost any new part you need to keep on living. People of the future may live to be a lot older than 100 years. TV Are you wondering whether there'll be television in the future? There'll almost certainly be wonderful programs. Television screens probably will be large and flat, hanging on the wall or going across the four walls of a room. People on the screen will look as real as if they were right in the room with you. Highways What about highways of the future? Well, a very small child probably will be able to drive a car. Nobody will need to steer. Electric signals will hold each car on the right road to get wherever the "driver" wants to go. And it probably will be impossible for cars to smash together. Controls that won't even have to be touched will make all speeding cars miss each other or will put on the brakes. Driving by car will be as safe as being at home. Weather control But maybe the most wonderful surprise in the future will be weather control. Cities may have giant plastic domes over them to keep out snow, rain, or storms. When you plan a picnic in a park, you won't have to worry about rain. It will rain only when the "weatherman" thinks it is needed to freshen the air inside the city. All other days will be fair and warm. The future should be a wonderful time in which to live. But the time you axe living in now was also "a wonderful future" to the people who lived 100 years ago. 1.

The multi-leveled structure underground would include everything that is necessary to a city, from offices, shopping malls to power and heating system. A. Y B. N C. NG
