A
Every year there is a Spring Festival in China。 Usually it is in January or February. It is the most important festival for the Chinese people and is when all family members get together, just like Christmas in the West。 All people living away from home usually go back for it。 So before it comes, everyone completely cleans the indoors and outdoors of their homes as well as their clothes, bedclothes and all their utensils(炊具)。 They have to prepare things. They buy pork, beef, chicken, fruits and many other things. And they often make a special kind of food—\"dumplings”, which means ”come together”。
On the day before the festival, parents buy new clothes for their children. Children also buy presents for their parents. On the Spring Festival Eve, all the family members come back to their home. This is a happy moment。 Some sing and dance, some play cards and others get the dinner ready. After they enjoy the meal, they watch Spring Festival Gala and they give each other the best wishes for the coming year. They all have a good time.
Burning fireworks was once the most typical custom on the Spring Festival. A series of activities such as lion dancing, dragon lantern dancing, lantern festivals and temple fairs will be held for days。 The Spring Festival then comes to an end when the Lantern Festival is finished。 China has 56 ethnic groups. Minorities celebrate their Spring Festival almost the same day as the Han people, but they have different customs.
1. When is the Chinese Spring Festival usually celebrated?
A。 In March or April。 C. In January or February.
B。 In May or June。 D. In November or December.
2。 is the special kind of food for the Spring Festival in China。
A. Chicken
B。 Dumpling
C。 Fish
D. Sandwich
3。 The family when they are getting dinner ready on the Spring Festival Eve.
A. give each other the best wishes B. buy each other presents C。 sing, dance and play cards D. watch Spring Festival Gala
4. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in this passage?
B
Do you know the term \"tweenager\"? It’s a slang word being used in the UK to describe children 10-13 years old. They are between junior and the teenage years。 Why are they suddenly referred to in this way?
Tweenagers now have more money, freedom and influence upon their parents than they’ve ever had before. More and more companies are creating products and services for tweenagers。 You can get everything from branded lunchboxes and mobile phone covers, to monthly fan magazines and clothing—it’s all about sales。
Most children in the UK today get more pocket money than kids did a decade ago. It is because parents are having fewer children on average than in the past. In addition, the divorce rate in the UK is continually rising and parents spend less time with their children than they used to。 So, many parents try to compensate(补偿) by buying presents for them。
And do tweenagers have more freedom? Well, UK children today are very familiar with media and computer。 Many have a television, if not a computer, in their bedrooms. They have access to much more information about the world.
They may have experienced a lot in life as well, since 24% of UK kids live in single-parent families. People now say that ”Kids are getting older younger\"。 With such sophistication(世故) at such a young age, they are much more fashion conscious and concerned about their image。 A. At the Spring Festival, the family members usually come back to their hometown. B. Before the Spring Festival, every family usually does some cleaning and shopping。 C。 You can hear the noise of burning fireworks and see lion dancing on the Spring Festival. D. Only the Han people celebrate their Spring Festival in China。
In a world of TV programs that promise overnight success and fame at a young age, some people think it's extremely important to look fashionable。 Surely none of the above is a good thing, is it? Can it really be healthy for us to encourage kids to be like adults at such a young age? Are we stealing childhoods in return for profit?
The UK government is certainly concerned, and for that reason has strict laws preventing companies from marketing their products and services at children. So, is there a happy ending to this story?
Companies have just worked out that the older tweenage audience is now looking for something darker and more rebellious. As a result, films such as Twilight are being produced for this older tweenage audience。
5. More and more companies pay attention to the tweenagers because________________。 A。 tweenagers have a growing interest in lunchboxes and mobile phones B. parents are more likely to spend money for their kids than before C. kids receive less pocket money now but have more freedom D。 every kid has a computer or a TV in their bedroom 6. What does paragraph 2 suggest? A. Kids have a great influence on the market. B. The products for the kids are of better quality.
C。 Kids are more fashionable than other earlier generations. D. Kids like to buy magazines and clothing most.
7. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 5 mean? A。 Children exercise too little to physically healthy. B. Children look older than they actually should be.
C. Children know more than earlier generations of youngsters knew.
D. Children have more freedom and appear more mature than previous generations。 8. What's the main idea of the passage?
A. The companies make use of tweenagers to make money。
B. Young tweenagers are having a positive influence on adult. C。 The market is changing to meet the demand of kids. D. Darker and more rebellious movies are popular with kids。
C
A poor traveler stopped under the tree to eat the boiled rice and vegetables which he had brought with him. A few meters away, there was a small shop by the side of the road where a woman was frying fish and selling it to travelers. The woman watched the poor traveler carefully, and when he finished his food and began to go, she shouted rudely, “You haven’t paid me for the fried fish!”
“But I have not had any fried fish !” he said。
But everyone can see that you enjoyed the smell of my fried fish with your rice and vegetables,” said the woman, “If you had not smelled the fish, your meal would not have been so pleasant!” Soon a crowd collected, and although they supported the poor traveler, they had to admit that wind was blowing from the shop to the place where he had eaten, and that it had carried the smell of the fried fish to him。
Finally, the woman took the poor traveler to a judge, who said: “The woman says that the traveler ate his meal with the smell of her fried fish. The traveler agrees that the wind was blowing from the woman's shop to the place where he ate his rice and vegetables and that it carried the smell of her fried fish to his nose while he was eating, so he must pay for it. What does your fried fish cost?\" he asked the woman。
“Twenty—five cents a plate,” she answered, delighted.
“Then go outside together,\" said the judge. “There the traveler must hold up a twenty-five-cent piece so that its shadow(影子) falls on the woman's hand。 The price of the smell of a plate of fried fish is the shadow of twenty—five cents。”
9. Why did the traveler refuse to pay the woman for the fried fish? Because 。 A。 he was poor B. he was rude
C. he was supported by a crowd
D。 he hadn’t eaten her fried fish at all
10。 When the judge asked the woman a question, she felt . A. excited B. anxious C. glad D. angry 11. Which of the following statements is true?
A。 The traveler bought the boiled rice and vegetables and ate them by the side of the road. B。 The judge had no idea what the woman meant.
C. In the fifth paragraph, the first “it\" has the same meaning as the second “it\". D. The woman got nothing but the shadow of twenty—five cents in the end. 12。 What do you think of the judge after reading the passage? A. He was foolish。 B. He was clever。
C。 He was neither foolish nor clever.
D。 He was kind enough to give the woman twenty—five cents。
D
More than 10 years ago, it was difficult to buy a tasty pineapple。 The fruits that made it to the UK were green on the outside and, more often than not, hard with an unpleasant taste within. Then in 1996, the Del Monte Gold pineapple produced in Hawaii first hit our shelves.
The new type of pineapple looked more yellowy-gold than green. It was slightly softer on the outside and had a lot of juice inside。 But the most important thing about this new type of pineapple was that it was twice as sweet as the hit—and—miss pineapples we had known. In no time, the Del Monte Gold took the market by storm, rapidly becoming the world’s best—selling pineapple variety, and delivering natural levels of sweetness in the mouth, up until then only found in tinned pineapple。
In nutrition(营养) it was all good news too。 This nice—tasting pineapple contained four times more vitamin C (维生素C) than the old green variety. Nutritionists said that it was not only full of vitamins, but also good against some diseases。 People were understandably eager to be able to buy this wonderful fruit. The new type of pineapple was selling fast, and the Del Monte Gold pineapple rapidly became a fixture in the shopping basket of the healthy eater. Seeing the growing market for its winning pineapple, Del Monte tried to keep the market to
itself。 But other fruit companies developed similar pineapples。 Del Monte turned to law for help, but failed. Those companies argued successfully that Del Monte's attempts to keep the golden pineapple for itself were just a way to knock them out of the market。
13. We learn from the text that the new type of pineapple is 。
A。 green outside and sweet inside B. good—looking outside and soft inside C. yellowy-gold outside and hard inside D。 a little soft outside and sweet inside 14。 Why was the new type of pineapple selling well?
A。 It was rich in nutrition and tasted nice B。 It was less sweet and good for health C。 It was developed by Del Monte D。 It was used as medicine
15。 The underlined word “fixture” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to something . A。 that people enjoy eating B. that is always present C. that is difficult to get D。 that people use as a gift 第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)

● Set a budget. Before making a plan for the holiday, the most important thing is to set a budget. 16。 ● Plan ahead. The first thing you need to do is to be sure of what you need from this trip。 Do you want to experience the local culture or just have fun on those sandy beaches? 17. ● Read up before you go。 18. Buy a good guidebook and read up on the culture, history, local attractions of the place。 You can read the local publications online or surf the Net for more information。 The more you know, the better you can enjoy the place and its traditions。 ● Pack light and right。 19。 Avoid carrying unnecessary things around。 A heavy luggage may sometimes influence your holiday spirit。 Carry clothes that are comfortable and right for the season。 As much as possible try to put everything you need in a single carry—on bag.

For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation。 To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazine: a never-ending flood of words。 In 21 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 22 can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the
unfortunate fact is that most of us are 23 readers。 Most of us develop poor reading 24 at an early age, and never get over them. The main difficulty 25 in the actual stuff of language itself—words。 Taken individually, words have 26 meaning until they are strung to gather into phrase, sentences and paragraphs. 27 , however, the untrained reader
does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to 28 words or passages, Regression, the tendency to look back over 29 you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading。 Another habit which 30 down the speed of reading is vocalization—sounding each word either orally or mentally as 31 reads.
To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an 32 , which moves a bar(or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate 33 the reader finds comfortable, in order to \"stretch\" him。 The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, 34 word—by—word reading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At first 35 is sacrificed for speed。 But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, 36 your comprehension will improve.
Many people have found 37 reading skill greatly improved after some training.
A。 Always book your stay。 B。 Have realistic expectations。 C. Pack only the important things。
D。 Plan your trip according to your needs and likes. E. It helps you to plan and enjoy the trip within your limits. F。 Prepare yourself before visiting an unknown holiday place。 G。 All you need is to get away from busy people and the world.

After a heated discussion, our class has decided to recommend Li Hua as the Touching Figure On Campus. We have every reason to believe he is qualified for the honor。 First, Li Hua is always willing to offer us help whenever necessary. Besides, his great devotion to work as monitor makes our class a best place to study in.
However, what has impressed us most is his unconditional love to poor children。 Last summer vacation, he volunteered to teach English in a small village, which has inspired many other students to join in and thus helped open up a new world to those children as well。
All in all, his selfless love touches our heart and his action suggests that even small efforts can make a difference to those in need. Therefore, we strongly support Li Hua as the Touching Figure On Campus.
