A
I was so glad to see so many people in the church. I walked up and met my dear Loma. She was dressed all in white. I put the ring on her finger and she looked up at me. “ My dear John, ” she was going to say something when there was the sound of a shot, and Loma fell across my knees. Blood was running down her white dress. I laid her on my mother’s arms and rushed out to find the man who shot Loma. I knew who it was — Carver!
I had no gun, only my hands to kill him with. “It’s Carver’s life or mine!” I said to myself. I jumped on my horse, rode up the hill and saw he was a quarter of a mile in front of me. I followed him. As I went past a tree I pulled off a branch and carried it with me. Carver rode round a comer but suddenly his horse ran to the edge of the marsh (沼泽地). He could not go on. If he tried to, his horse would go down into the bottomless bog (泥塘), together with him.
Carver tried to fire his gun at me. The shot struck me, but I didn’t care. I thought of nothing but my enemy. I rode on. As I reached him ，I struck his horse with the branch, so it fell to the ground. Carver fell with it. I jumped off my horse and stood waiting. Carver looked round for his gun, but I had thrown it away. He had only his hands to fight with, too! I allowed him to come forward. Suddenly he seized me with his strong arms and broke a bone in my side. I took him by the neck. He tried to free himself but couldn’t. At last he was helpless. I threw him away from me and said, “Go and learn to be a better man.” But his feet had gone into the bog. He went down 一 down — out of sight! I simply couldn’t help him or save him!
I could not think of anything but Loma’s death. I hurried back, I saw my mother smile and she said, “She isn’t dead.” For days Loma lay in bed between life and death. Then slowly she came back to life and life came back to me.
56. Where did the gun shot happen?
A. In John’s house B. On the hill C. At the wedding D. In the marsh
57.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 suggests that _____
A. Carver was bound to die if John wanted him to
B. neither Carver nor John would survive the fight
C. John was afraid of getting killed by Carver in the fight
D. John determined to punish Carver regardless of his own life
58.Carver finally died in the fight with John because_______.
A. John seized the gun and shot him B. he fell into the bog and sank down
C. John beat him to death with the branch D. the horse rushed into the bog with him
59.From the passage, we can tell that John was _____.
A. patient but tough B. smart but violent C. devoted and generous D. fearless and merciful
B
Have you ever wondered what keeps a hot air balloon flying? The same principle that keeps food frozen in the open freezers at the grocery store allows hot air balloons to fly. It's a very basic principle: Hot air rises and cold air falls. So while the cooled air in the grocery store freezer settles down around the food, the hot air in a hot air balloon pushes up, keeping the balloon floating above the ground.
A hot air balloon has three major parts: the basket, the burner, and the envelope. The basket is where passengers ride. The burner is positioned above the passenger's heads and produces a huge flame to heat the air inside the envelope. The envelope is the colorful balloon that holds the hot air. When the air inside the envelope is heated, the balloon rises.
The pilot can control the up-and-down movements of the hot air balloon by regulating the heat in the envelope. To ascend, the pilot heats the air in the envelope but when the pilot is ready to land, the air in the balloon is allowed to cool and the balloon becomes heavier than air. This makes the balloon go down.
Before the balloon is launched (使升空) , the pilot knows which way the wind is blowing. This means that he has a general idea about which way the balloon will go. But, sometimes the pilot can actually control the direction that the balloon flies. This is because the air above the ground is divided into layers (层）in which the direction of the wind may be different. So even though the pilot can't guide the balloon, he can fly higher into a different layer of air to better control the direction!
60.In Paragraph I, the writer tells us how a hot balloon works by_______.
A. giving an example
B. making a comparison
C. observing food in the freezer
D. keeping the balloon floating
61. According to the passage, how could pilots control the balloon’s altitude?
A. Move into a different layer of air.
B. Change the amount of weight in the basket.
C. Adjust the amount of air in the envelope.
D. Regulate the air temperature inside the balloon.
62. What does the underlined word ‘‘ascend”(in Paragraph 3) mean?
A. sink. B. move. C. rise. D. float.
63. What could the pilot do to change a balloon direction during flight?
A. Fly into a cloud B. Move to an upper layer.
C. Wait for it to rain. D. Head toward a mountain peak.
C
As a language student there are several reasons why learning about cultural aspects is important and fun. One is interest. Knowing about the way people behave makes your reading more interesting. Another reason is usefulness.
If you are going to have a conversation with native speakers of a language you learn, you need to know the sort of topics that interest them once you get past “Hello”. You need to know something about their favorite sports, the current (现时的)government of the country where the language is spoken, current fashions in clothes and outstanding national events in recent times, to mention a few. Showing that you know something about their country can lead to interesting conversations.
The way people think is closely connected with language. Languages are one channel through which different cultures present their ideas both within themselves and in contact with others. The fact that a language does not have the same range of words as another language does not mean that they do not value those things as much .
Whether or not your main intention to Learn a language is to learn about people’s cultural backgrounds or to deal with a degree course, you will be learning about it indirectly from various sources about culture like the course book, films, the news, literature or even travel brochures (手 册).You could make a long list just by thinking of all the things that are important to the culture such as customs that go back centuries, architecture, traditional ceremonies, the way people relate to each other in families, the value that are important to a society, the sense of humour that people share, movies, music and art. All these cultural aspects are important to language learners if they want to get a better understanding of the language itself.
64. Which of the following contributes to a conversation with native speakers?
A. Greeting them by saying “Hello”. B. Talking about their religious beliefs.
C. Telling them about your favorite sports. D. Mentioning interesting topics in their culture.
65. What role does a language play in the culture?
A. It offers the same range of words as another language.
B. It is a channel through which people present their ideas.
C. It values people’s ideas and thoughts to a certain degree.
D. It deals with the relationship between thoughts and language.
66. The last paragraph mainly deals with ______ .
A. people’s main purpose to learn a foreign language
B. the importance to learn about cultural backgrounds
C. different cultural sources and main cultural aspects
D. how people think and what is valued by a society
67. What might be the best title for this passage?
A. What is a culture about B. Why do we learn culture
C. What to learn in a culture D. How to learn about culture
D
How often do you find yourself running out of time? For many, it seems that there's just never enough time to get everything done. When you know how to manage your time, you gain control. Effective time management helps you to choose what to work on and when in a focused and effective way. The following tips will help you to better manage your time and achieve anything of any real worth:
Goal Setting
To start managing time effectively, you need to set goals. When you know where you’re going, you’ll figure out what exactly needs to be done. People tend to neglect goal setting because it requires time and effort. What they fail to consider is that a little time and effort put in now saves a huge amount of time and effort in the future.
Prioritization and Scheduling
Prioritizing (优先排序)what needs to be done is especially important. Most people have a “to-do” list. The problem with many of these lists is they are just a collection of things that need to get done. To work efficiently you need to work on the most important, highest value tasks — priority tasks. When you know what your priority tasks are, you need to know how to create a schedule that keeps you on track, and protects you from stress. Creating a proper schedule that reflects your priorities will allow you to control your time and keep your life in balance.
Managing Interruptions
Having a plan and knowing how to prioritize it is one thing. The next issue (问题）is knowing how to manage interruptions. There may be phone calls, information requests and events that occur unexpectedly. However, you need to do whatever you can to concentrate on the main tasks.
Procrastination (拖延症）
“I’ll get to it later9* has led to the downfall of many people. After too many “laters” ，work piles up. The best way to beat procrastination is to figure out why you procrastinate. Once you know why, you can plan to get out of the habit. It’s wise to remind yourself regularly of the horrible consequences of not doing those boring tasks!
68.The author’s purpose of writing this passage is to______.
A. help people to get rid of bad habits B. give advice on how to manage time
C. point out the importance of setting goals D. offer suggestions on how to work properly
69. What’s the main advantage of setting goals according to the author?
A. It helps you to save time and effort. B. It creates chances for you to succeed.
C. It helps you to choose what to work on. D. You can prioritize what needs to be done.
70.The word “interruption” (in Paragraph 4) is similar in meaning to______.
A. process B. disadvantage C. disturbance D. emergency
71. Which of the following may make you slow down your work according to the passage?
A. Procrastination. B. Scheduling. C. Prioritization. D. Goal setting.
E
Poor sleep can have a great effect on the functions inside the human body, say UK researchers. The activity of hundreds of genes was changed when people's sleep was cut to less than six hours a day for a week. The researchers said the results of the recent research helped explain how poor sleep damaged health. Heart disease, diabetes, obesity and poor brain function have ail been linked to poor sleep.
What poor sleep actually does to affect health, however, is unknown. So researchers at the University of Surrey analyzed the blood of 26 people after they had had plenty of sleep, up to 10 hours each night for a week, and compared the results with those after a week of fewer than six hours a night. More than 700 genes were changed due to poor sleep. Each contains the instructions for building a protein (蛋白)，so those that became more active produced more proteins 一 changing the chemistry of the body.
Meanwhile the natural body clock was disturbed — some genes naturally get weak in activity through the day, but this effect was eased (缓解)due to poor sleep. Prof Colin Smith, from the University of Surrey, told the BBC, “There was quite a sharp change in activity in many different kinds of genes.” Areas such as the immune system and how the body responds to damage and stress were affected.” Prof Smith added, “Clearly sleep is of extreme importance to rebuilding the body and maintaining (维持) a functional state”.
Dr Akhilesh Reddy, a specialist in the body clock at the University of Cambridge, said the key findings were the effects on inflammation (炎症)and the immune system as it was possible to see a link between those effects and health problems such as diabetes. The findings also tie into research attempting to do away with sleep, such as by finding a drug that could get rid of the effects of poor sleep. Dr Reddy said, “My feeling is that sleep is particularly important to make all cells to grow again?”
72.The passage is mainly about______.
A. why body clock was affected by poor sleep
B. how researchers found the results of poor sleep
C. how poor sleep could affect the human body
D. why proteins changed the chemistry of the body
73. What could poor sleep result in?
A. The change in genes. B. Weaker body reactions.
C. Less active genes. D. The decrease in proteins.
74.It can be inferred from the passage that______.
A. researchers know little about the effect of poor sleep
B. people with poor sleep are expected to live a short life
C. a new drug to cure poor sleep will soon come into being
D. genes should grow and die naturally according to the body clock
75. According to Dr Akhilesh Reddy, which of the following is TRUE?
A. Body clock will disturb immune systems. B. Sleep is closely related to the growth of cells.
C. Healthy problems are the results of poor sleep. D. Sleep is important to keeping the functional state.
