It is the time when I realize that the books my English teacher assigned to me are not going to read themselves and that I have a difficult month in front of me.　　You might think that I don’t want to spend my summer reading, but that’s not the problem: I love reading. On the first day of my summer holidays this year, I went to the library and got “A Gathering of Old Men” by African-American writer Ernest Gaines. I enjoyed it very much. I read all the magazines that my parents subscribe to and spend about 30 minutes every day with the morning paper. So why do I hate summer reading for school? Because the books on summer reading lists are often slow-going and just uninviting. Teachers and librarians don’t understand that summer reading can be entertaining as well as educational. They choose books that a friend of my mother’s calls “spinach books”: good for you, but not much fun to take in. Every summer, I read them, hate them and get bitter about the experience.　　This bitterness started three years ago when I was about to begin high school. As preparation, my English teacher told me to read “The Age of Innocence” by American author Edith Wharton. I’m sure there are many people who enjoyed “The Age of Innocence” ― some might even say it’s their favorite book.　　But I don’t think any of these people read it as a 14-year-old boy on his summer vacation.　　“The Age of Innocence” is the story of a forbidden romance in New York 100 years ago. At 14, my only experience with romance was my love for baseball. I couldn’t imagine being in love, much less being in love in 1900. “The Age of Innocence” was totally different to my life.　　Most of my required summer reading has been like that ― books written in a style that plays up the adjectives and plays down the verbs. I guess teachers don’t think exciting plots make for “good literature”. To me, though, a good writer describes events and characters in a way that makes the reader want to know what happens next.　　If I were making up a summer reading list, it would include “The Friends of Eddie Coyle” by George V. Higgins, “The Right Stuff” by Tom Wolfe, and “Into Thin Air” by Jon Krakauer. These are all books that have literary value but, just as important, can also entertain kids on vacation. If the teachers could stand a little fun in the books they assign, my Augusts would be a lot more enjoyable.21. The author thinks he will have a difficult August because ____________.&& A. he doesn’t like reading in summer vacation&& B. he is to read the books boring and not right for kids&& C. he hates the English teacher assigning homework&& D. he hates August22. What can make students interested in August reading ought to be ___________.&& A. romantic &&&&&&&&B. out of date && C. entertaining and educational&&&&D. pure23. The author listed such books as “The Friends of Eddie Coyle” because he thinks __________.&& A. they can change his opinion&&&&B. he can learn a lot more from them&& C. they are of literary value, and enjoyable&D. he has to do as teachers tell him to24. In the opinion of the author of this passage, a good writer should be ___________.&& A. one who describes events and characters in different ways&& B. one who is full of imagination&&&&&&&&& C. one who is learnedD. one who uses a way of describing that makes the reader wish to know what to happen next25. Which of the following could be the best title of this passage?&& A. Why Can’t Teachers Set Us Fun Books?&& B. I Don’t Like Reading on the Vacation&& C. Teachers, Don’t Set Us Any Reading Assignments&& D. Teachers, Set Us Free(B)　　World top-ranked badminton player Lin Dan said last Friday that he was a better player than Taufik Hidayat in the year of 2006 despite losing the Asian Games single title to the Indonesian Olympic champion.　　“I have ranked No.1 in the world for two straight years and I think people can easily come to a conclusion on who is a better player for the whole year,” said Lin Dan, also known as Super Dan in the badminton world because of his marvelous performance in the sport.　　Hidayat beat Lin 21-15, 22-20 to give Indonesia its second gold medal in Doha on December 9, retaining his Asian Games singles title and avenging(报仇) two losses to the badminton world champion.　　Lin, 23, led China to the men’s team title after defeating Hidayat twice in three days, in the preliminary round and in the semifinals of the Asian Games.　　In their third meeting, Lin came up against a better-prepared Hidayat than he had encountered previously.　　Hidayat was cheered on by the noisy support from dancing and flag-waving Indonesian fans, who had converted the badminton arena into a national celebration even before the two players stepped on to the court.　　There’s been a lot of acrimony(言语的刻毒) between Hidayat and Lin, who this year won the single title in the world championships after former champion Hidayat crashed out in the quarterfinals.　　In Doha, Hidayat was quoted as calling Lin “arrogant” before the event began, but the two stars played down the rift.　　“It’s no problem, we’re close friends,” said Hidayat. “The media fabricated it.”　　Lin said last Friday in Beijing that he and Hidayat remain friends despite all the rumors.　　“There is no problem between Taufik and me although we don’t talk to ” said Lin. “Media tends to make up things in order to make their stories juicy.”26. What does the underlined word “fabricated” mean?A. made up&&& B. reported&&C. discovered&&&&& D. found out27. What is the relationship between the two players like?A. They are only opponents.&&&&&&&& B. Lin looks down upon Hidayat.C. They both think they are friends.D. The media has worsened the relationship between them.28. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Lin beat Hidayat in all the games of 2006.B. Lin won the single title in the world championships in 2006.C. Indonesian fans held a national celebration after the two players stepped ontothe court.D. Hidayat beat Lin 21-15, 22-20 to give Indonesia its first gold medal in Doha on the ninth of December 29. This passage implies that____________________________.A. Hidayat was in a better prepared condition than Lin in the Asian GamesB. Lin helped to win the men’s team title in the Asian Games of 2006C. Both of them are the best badminton players in the worldD. Media tends to make up rumors30. What is the best title for this passage?A. Opponents Become Good Friends&&&B. True FriendshipC. World Top-ranked Badminton Players&&D. Who Is a Better Player?(C)　　More than four out of five people admit to telling little white lies at least once a day and the preferred way of “being economical with the truth” is to use technology such as cell phones, texts and e-mails, a survey last Thursday said.　　The research by UK pollsters 72 Point found that “techno-treachery(高科技说谎)” was wide-spread with nearly 75 percent of people saying gadgets made it easier to fib(撒小谎).　　Just over half of respondents(被调查者) said using gadgets made them feel less guilty when telling a lie than doing it face to face.　　The workplace was a favorite location for fibbing with 67 percent of the 1,487 respondents admitting they had lied at work.　　The top lie was pretending to be ill (43 percent) followed by saying work had been completed when it hadn’t (23 percent). Worryingly for bosses 18 percent said they lied to hide a big mistake.　　But, employers were not the only ones on the receiving end of dishonest statements. Just over 40 percent of the respondents said they had lied to their families or partners.　　Key topics to lie about were: buying new clothes or the cost of them (37 percent), how good someone looked in something (35 percent), how much they had eaten (35 percent) and drunk (31 percent) and how much they weighed (32 percent).31. The underlined phrase “being economical with the truth” probably means ________.&& A. telling lies&&B. making apologies&C. feeling guilty&D.admitting mistakes32. It can be inferred from the passage that ___________.&& A. employers sometimes lie to their employees, too&& B. 75% of people have ever lied to someone&& C. without gadgets, people may feel more pressure when telling white lies&& D. more people lie to their family than to their bosses33. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?&& A. Cell phones make people more likely to lie.&& B. Some people might lie to their bosses when they are not doing their work well.&& C. 40% of employers admit that they have lied to their families or partners.&& D. Nearly 1,500 people were questioned in the survey.34. According to the passage, in which of the following situations are you most likely to lie?&& A. You are going to spend the night at your friend’s, which your parents won’t allow.&& B. Your friend is wearing a new dress and asks you how you find it.&& C. You are a little too fat, and you’re trying to tell your friend how heavy you are.&& D. You want to ask your boss for a sick leave, although you are not ill.35. The main idea of the passage is that __________.&& A. people are getting more likely to lie&& B. gadgets are seen as the best way to tell white lies&& C. most people tell white lies at the workplace&& D. 18% of people lie to their bosses(D)Although April did not bring us the rains we all hoped for, and although the Central Valley doesn’t generally experience the sound and lightning that can go with those rains, it’s still important for parents to be able to answer the youthful questions about thunder and lightning.The reason these two wonders of nature are so difficult for many adults to explain to children is that they are not very well understood by adults themselves. For example, do you know that the lightning we see flashing down to the earth from a cloud is actually flashing up to a cloud from the earth? Our eyes trick us into thinking we see a downward motion when it’s actually the other way round. But then, if we believed only what we think and we see, we’d still insist that the sun rises in the morning and sets at night.Most lightning flashes take place inside a cloud, and only a relative few can be seen jumping between two clouds or between earth and a cloud.& But, with about 2,000 thunderstorms taking place above the earth every minute of the day and night, there’s enough activity to produce about 100 lightning strikes on earth every second.Parents can use thunder and lightning to help their children learn more about the world around them. When children understand that the light of lightning flashing reaches their eyes almost at the same moment, but the sound of the thunder takes about 5 seconds to travel just one mile, they can begin to time the interval(间隔) between the flash and the crash to learn how close they are to the actual spark(闪光).36. According to the author, in the area of the Central Valley, ___________.A. rains usually come without thunder and lightning& B. it is usually dry in AprilC. children pay no attention to the two natural wondersD. parents are not interested in thunder and lightning37. We believe that lightning is a downward motion because ___________.A. we were taught so by our parents from our childhoodB. we are taken in by our sense of visionC. it is a common natural sightD. it is a truth proved by science38. What is TRUE about lightning according to the passage?& A. Only a small number of lightning flashes occur on earth.& B. Lightning travels 5 times faster than thunder.& C. Lightning flashes usually jump from one cloud to another.& D. There are far more lightning strikes occurring on earth than we can imagine.39. The underlined word “activity” is most closely related to the word(s)& _______________.A. “cloud”&& B. “lightning strikes”&& C. “lightning flashes”& D. “thunderstorms”40. It can be concluded from the passage that____________.& A. we should not believe what we see or hear& B. things moving downward are more noticeable& C. people often have wrong ideas about ordinary phenomena (现象)& D. adults are not as good as children in observing certain natural phenomena&(E)A study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture than is possible to learn in general history classes. Most typical history courses concentrate on politics, economics, and war. But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only the political values of a people, but also religious beliefs, emotions, and psychology. In addition, information about the daily activities of our ancestors ― or of people very different from our own ― can be provided by art. In short, art expresses the essential qualities of a time and a place, and a study of it clearly offers us a deeper understanding than can be found in most history books.In history books, objective(客观的) information about the political life of a
that is, facts about politics are given, but opinions are not expressed. Art, on the other hand, is subjective(主观的): it reflects emotions and opinions. The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first truly “political” artist. In his well-known painting The Third of May, 1808, he criticized the Spanish government for its misuse of power over people. Over a hundred years later, symbolic images were used in Pablo Picasso’s Guernica to express the horror of war. Meanwhile, on another continent, the powerful paintings of Diego Rivera, Jose Clemente Orozco, and David Alfaro Siqueiros ― as well as the works of Alfredo Ramos Martinez ― depicted these Mexican artists’ deep anger and sadness about social problems.In the same way, art can reflect a culture’s religious beliefs. For hundreds of years in Europe, religious art was almost the only type of art that existed. Churches and other religious buildings were filled with paintings that depicted people and stories from the Bible.& Although most people couldn’t read, they could still understand biblical stories in the pictures on church walls.& By contrast, one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was (and still is) its absence of human and animal images. This reflects the Islamic belief that statues are unholy(不圣洁的).41. More can be learned about a culture from a study of art history than general history because art history ____________.A. shows us the religious beliefs and emotions of a people in addition to political valuesB. provides us with information about the daily activities of people in the pastC. gives us an insight into the essential qualities of a time and a placeD. all of the above42. Art is subjective(主观的) in that _________.&A. a personal and emotional view of history is presented through it&B. it can easily rouse our anger or sadness about social problems&C. it will find a ready echo in our hearts&&D. both B and C 43. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?&A. Unlike Francisco Goya, Pablo Picasso and several Mexican artists expressed their political opinions in their paintings.&B. History books often reveal the compilers’ political views.&C. Religious art remained in Europe for centuries the only type of art because most people regarded the Bible as the Holy Book.&D. In the Middle East even today you can hardly find any human and animal figures on palaces or other buildings.44. The passage mainly discusses __________.&A. the difference between general history and art history&&&&& &B. the making of art history&&C. what we can learn from art&&D. the influence of artists on art history45. It may be concluded from this passage that __________.&A. Islamic artists have had to create architectural decoration with images of flowers or geometric forms&B. history teachers are more objective than artists&C. it is more difficult to study art history than general history&D. people and stories from the Bible were painted on churches and other buildings in order to popularize the Bible(F)Are some people born clever，and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no amount of education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.&&& It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be intelligent. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely to be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.&&& Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.46. The writer is in favor of the view that man’s intelligence is given to him______.&A. at birth&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& &B. through education&C. both at birth and through education&D. neither at birth nor through education47. If a child is born with low intelligence, he can______.&& A. become a genius&& B. still become a genius if he should be given special education&& C. reach his intelligence limits in rich surroundings&& D. not reach his intelligence in his life48. In the second paragraph, the underlined sentence means“if we ___________.”&A. pick any two persons&&&&B. take out two different persons&C. choose two persons who are relative&D.choose two persons with different intelligence49. The example of the twins going to a university and to a factory separately shows______.&A. the importance of their intelligence&&B. the role of environment on intelligence &C. the importance of their positions&&D. the part that birth plays50. The best title of the passage can be______.&& A. Surroundings&&&&&&&&& &&&B. Intelligence&& C. Dependence on Environment&&D. Effect of Education(G)&& A small dog should be belly-up after eating a handful M＆M’s, at least according to conventional wisdom. But watching “Moose”, a friend’s five-pound Chihuahua, race around a living room after his sweet snack makes one wonder: Is chocolate truly poisonous to dogs?&&& Dogs and humans have similar tastes. But unlike humans, our companions experience dangerous effects from eating chocolate ― it can poison them and in some cases is fatal. Chocolate’s danger to dogs depends on its quality.&&& Chocolate is processed from the bitter seeds of the cocoa tree, which contain a family of compounds known as methylxanthines（一种衍生物）. This class of substances includes caffeine and the related chemical theobromine(可可碱). Chocolate contains a significant amount of theobromine and smaller amounts of caffeine. These chemicals can cause a dog’s heart to race up to twice its normal rate, and some dogs may run around as if “they drank a gallon of espresso,” according to Hackett.&&& Dogs are capable of handling some chocolate, but it depends on the animal’s weight and the type of chocolate it eats. Unsweetened baking chocolate contains more than six times as much theobromine as milk chocolate, although amounts vary between cocoa beans as well as different brands of chocolate. Less than four ounces of milk chocolate is potentially fatal for Moose and other small dogs.&&& Around every confection-centered holiday ― Valentine’s Day, Easter and Christmas ― at least three or four dogs are hospitalized overnight in the animal medical center at Colorado State. But in 16 years, Hackett has seen just one dog die from chocolate poisoning, and he suspects it may have had an underlying disease that made it more exposed to chocolate’s heart-racing effect.51. The underlined expression “belly-up” probably means______.&& A. dead&&B. poisonous&&&C. running around&D. having a headache52. All of the following are true EXCEPT______.&& A. chocolate’s danger to dogs depends on its quantity and quality&& B. people buy lots of chocolate around Valentine’s Day && C. an ounce of unsweetened baking chocolate is safe for Moose&& D. there must be some theobromine or caffeine in espresso53. What can we learn about Hackett?&& A. He is an animal doctor.&&&&&&&& B. He is a pet shop owner.&& C. He is the owner of Moose&&&&&& D. He is a doctor in a small hospital.54. It can be inferred from the passage that Hackett believes that__________.&& A. chocolate is truly deadly to dogs& B. it’s OK to give chocolate to a big dog && C. pets are usually ignored around confection-centered holidays&& D. a healthy dog probably could survive a chocolate poisoning55. The passage is mainly about__________.&& A. the poisoning of Moose&&& && B. the compounds of different chocolates&& C. a handful M＆M’s chocolate is poisonous && D. the relation between methylxanthines and chocolate poisoning第二节 信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）　　请阅读下列应用文及相关信息，按照要求匹配信息。并将答案填写在答题卷标号为56―60的相应位置上。　　首先，请阅读下列应用文：A.

The journeys were often long, tiring and dangerous. Today the picture has changed. Science has improved transportation and communication facilities a great deal. Traveling has become safer, more enjoyable and above all, more economical.　　Traveling ― whether within one’s country or abroad ― brings many invaluable benefits. People travel for pleasure, business or for education and knowledge. In the world of yesterday most people were only able to read about strange and fascinating places across the mountains and seas. Later, with the coming of the cinema and television, man’s curiosity about faraway places with strange sounding names was further stirred up. Today man’s curiosity can be satisfied in luxurious comfort. There are first-class ships and airplanes to take him where his dreams lie.　　We travel to increase our knowledge of the world in which we live. Knowledge obtained from books alone is not enough. New knowledge of different land and peoples enriches our mind and soul. Books generally do not give us a very true picture of lands beyond our shores. Some of them are even misleading.[写作内容]&&&1. 以约30个词概括短文的要点；2. 然后以约120个词就“交通的发展给我们带来什么”这个主题发表你的看法，并包括以下要点：&1)&& 简述从古到今交通方式的变化；& 2)& 现代交通给我们带来的好处，&如快捷性、舒适性、经济性及帮助我们扩大视野等；3)& 现代交通给我们带来的一些负面影响；&4)& 你如何评价现代交通？[写作要求]&&&1.可以使用实例或其它论述方法支持你的论点，也可以参照阅读材料的内容，但不得直接引用原文中的句子；2. 标题自定；3. 答案请写在答题卷的相应位置上。[评分标准]&&概括准确，语言规范，内容合适，篇章连贯。What Does Modern Transportation Bring Us?------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
参考答案1---60&& BADAD&& CBBCA&& CBCCC&& DDCBD&& BCCDA&& ACDCD&& ACCDB&& ABDDC&& DADCA&& CCABB&& ACADD&& BFEDC
&(One possible version) What Does Modern Transportation Bring Us?Science has made traveling much more convenient than before, and in turn, traveling brings us lots of benefits. We get happiness and know more about different places through the comfortable and convenient traveling.&&& Transportation has changed a lot during the past years. In ancient times, the fast way to travel was to ride a horse or carriage, while most people just walked. Then, people had bicycles, ships, cars and trains and now we have planes or even spaceships, which are much faster. Modern transportation helps us a lot. It offers us quicker and more comfortable traveling and brings people to closer contact. We can also get more knowledge through traveling. With the help of more economical traveling and modern media, people’s curiosity about things in other places can be satisfied. However, it also brings about negative things like lack of energy and air pollution. So nothing is really perfect, isn’t it?
