            • 1. As we know,it is common for people to catch a cold in winter and most people believe they know the reason for colds.However,scientists say people have some wrong beliefs about the cause of colds.
              Many people think that once you get infected by colds,you will not be easy to be attacked by colds for the rest of your life.That's not the case.There are about 200different viruses that cause the common cold.You catch a cold because of one kind of them this time,but you might catch a cold next time because of another.
              Others believe that people get sick just because of the cold weather in winter.That is also wrong.
              It's because people tend to stay closer in winter and the cold virus is transmitted  from one person to another through handshakes,sneezing,or coughing.
              While there is no actual cure for the common cold,scientists say there are still a few things you can do to help you.Some experts say honey and chicken soup are effective against colds.Especially honey.There is increasing evidence that it helps shorten the duration of the common cold sometimes even by two to three days particularly in children.Chicken soup also helps reduce the duration of the cold.
              In addition,if you do have a cold and you don't feel like eating anything,it's not going to hurt you but you have to drink a lot and you can drink water or tea because doctors say the water cycle in your bodies helps to cure colds.That's very important.Though there is more than one way to deal with colds,doctors say the best advice is to continue using whatever works best for you.

              9.We know from the second paragraph that    
              A.colds can be caused by different viruses      
              B.there are people who never catch a cold
              C.the common cold is caused by only one virus  
              D.all people are easily attacked by colds
              10.The underlined word"transmitted"in the fourth paragraph means"    ".
              A.cured         B.changed      
              C.passed        D.caused
              11.If you have a cold,you can do the following except    
              A.drinking a lot of water   
              B.forcing yourself to eat    
              C.eating honey  
              D.drinking chicken soups
              12.It can be inferred from the passage that    
              A.different people may have different ways to fight against colds
              B.now scientists have found out practical treatment for colds
              C.working in freezing weather is the main reason for colds
              D.colds can be passed from animals to human beings.
            • 2. You may know the English letters A,B and C.But do you know there are people called ABC?You may like eating bananas.But did you know there is such a thing as a"banana person"?How strange!Are these people from"another earth"?No.They are just Chinese people like you and me.
                  ABC means American-born Chinese.An ABC is a Chinese,but was born in the United States.Sometimes,people call an ABC a"banana person".A banana is yellow outside and white inside.So,when a person is a banana,he or she is white inside-thinking like a Westerner and yellow outside-looking like a Chinese.
                  Do you know why?Usually,ABCs know little about China or the Chinese language.Some of them don't speak Chinese.Also,they are not interested in Chinese politics.
                  But if ABCs cannot speak Chinese,can we still call them Chinese people?Yes,of course.They are Chinese.They are overseas Chinese.These people may be citizens of another country like the US,Canada or Singapore.But they have Chinese blood.Their parents,grandparents or even great-grandparents were from China.They all have black eyes and black hair.But they are not Chinese citizens.They are not people of the People's Republic of China.For example,we all know the famous scientist C.N.Yang.He got the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1957.Chinese people love him.But he is an American citizen.
              12."ABC"in this text stands for"    ".
              A.three English letters         B.a kind of banana
              C.Chinese born in America       D.Americans born in China
              13.Chinese in Western countries are called"banana persons"because    
              A.their bodies are white inside but yellow outside
              B.they think like Westerners but look like Chinese
              C.they were born in China but go to study in America
              D.they are Chinese who look like bananas
              14.C.N.Yang is mentioned here to show that    
              A.American Chinese are great
              B.we love American Chinese
              C.Chinese people can win Nobel Prizes
              D.American Chinese are not Chinese citizens
              15.This text is mainly about    
              A.different kinds of bananas
              B.overseas Chinese
              C.the Nobel Prize
              D.the life story of C.N.Yang.
            • 3. Life is good for penguins in Antarctica(南极洲)at the end of the movie Happy Feet.Real-life penguins,though,have little to celebrate.
              Twelve of the world's 19penguin species(种类)face serious dangers,according to wildlife experts.
              They are in danger of disappearing from the earth,including emperor penguins.
              "Many of the world's penguin species are in big trouble,"penguin expert Kassel Siegel told WR News.
              Her wildlife group is asking the US government to protect the 12species of penguins in danger.Several countries are making efforts to make sure the rapidly increasing tourists in Antarctica do not cause environmental problems.
              Overfishing is one reason for the problem.Penguins eat small fish and tiny animals called krill.Fishing boats are catching lots of krill.That leaves less food for penguins to eat.
              Another reason for the decline(减少)in the number of penguins is global warming.Global warming is the slow increase in average temperature around the world.It is causing sea ice to melt.Penguins need the sea ice as a place to rest while they search for krill.
              Scientists say global warming is caused when we drive cars or use electricity.That burns coal,oil,and natural gas.The burning of coal,oil,and natural gas gives off gases that add to the overheating of the earth."We can and must reduce gas emissions(排放)to keep penguins safe in the future,"says Siegel.

              24.What would probably happen if people reduced their use of coal,oil,and natural gas?    
              A.Penguins would have to move toother places to live.
              B. Penguins would be less likely to disappear from the earth.
              C.There would be more krill for penguins to eat.
              D.t would save people a lot of money.
              25.Which o the following are the reasons for the decline in the number of penguins?    
              A.The development of tourism and overheating.
              B.Overfishing and attacks from other animals.
              C.Overfishing and overheating.
              D.The develoment of tourism and attacks from other animals.
              26.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?    
              A.Penguins mainly live on small fish and tiny animals which live in water.
              B.Penguins need the sea ice as a place to feed their children.
              C.Nineteen of the world's penguin species face serious dangers.
              D.The US government has taken measures to protect the penguins in danger.
            • 4. There are some very good things about open education.This way of teaching allows the students to grow as people,and to develop their own interests in many subjects.Open education allows students to be responsible for their own education,as they are responsible for what they do in life.Some students do badly in a traditional classroom.The open classroom may allow them to enjoy learning.Some students will be happier in an open education school.They will not have to worry about grades or rules.For students who worry about these things a lot,it is a good idea to be in an open classroom.
              But many students will not do well in an open classroom.For some students,there are too few rules.These students will do little in school.They will not make good use of open education.Because open education is so different from traditional education,these students may have a problem getting used to making so many choices.For many students it is important to have some rules in the classroom.They worry about the rules even when there are no rules.Even a few rules will help this kind of students.The last point about open education is that some traditional teachers do not like it.Many teachers do not believe in open education.Teachers who want to have an open classroom may have many problems at their schools.
              You now know what open education is.Some of its good points and bad points have been explained.You may have your own opinion about open education.The writer thinks that open education is a good idea,but only in theory.In actual fact,it may not work very well in a real class or school.The writer believes that most students,but of course not all students,want some structure in their classes.They want and need to have rules.In some cases,they must be made to study some subjects.Many students are pleased to find subjects they have to study interesting.They would not study those subjects if they did not have to.
              51.Open education allows the students to    ..
              A.grow as the educatedB.be responsible for their future
              C.develop their own interestsD.discover subjects outside class
              52.Open education may be a good idea for the students who    ..
              A.enjoy learningB.worry about grades
              C.do well in a traditional classroomD.are responsible for what they do in life.
              53.Some students will do little in an open classroom because    
              A.there are too few rules                           
              B.they hate activities
              C.open education is similar to the traditional education   
              D.they worry about the rules
              54.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?    
              A.Some traditional teachers do not like it.
              B.Many teachers do not believe in open education.
              C.Teachers may have problems in open classrooms.
              D.The teacher's feelings and attitudes are important to the students.
              55.Which of the following best summarizes the passage?    
              A.Open education is a really complex idea.
              B.Open education is better than traditional education.
              C.Teachers dislike open education.
              D.The writer thinks that open education is a good idea in practice.
            • 5. Recently I spoke to some of my students about what they wanted to do after they graduated,and what kind of job prospects they thought they had.
              Given that I teach students who are training to be doctors,I was surprised to find that most thought that they would not be able to get the jobs they wanted without"outside help"."What kind of help is that?"I asked,expecting them to tell me that they would need a relative or family friend to help them out.
              "Surgery",one replied.I was pretty surprised by that response.It seems that the graduates of today are increasingly willing to go under the knife to get ahead of others when it comes to getting a job.One girl told me that she was considering surgery to increase her height."They break your legs,put in special extending screws,and slowly expand the gap between the two ends of the bone as it regrows,you can get at least 5cm taller!"
              At that point,I was shocked.I am short,I can't deny that,but I don't think I would put myself through months of pain just to be a few centimeters taller.I don't even bother to wear shoes with thick soles,as I'm not trying to hide the fact that I am just not tall!It seems to me that there is a trend toward wanting"perfection",and that is an ideal that just does not exist in reality.
              No one is born perfect,yet magazines,TV shows and movies present images of thin,tall,beautiful people as being the norm.Advertisements for slimming aids,beauty treatments and cosmetic surgery clinics fill the pages of newspapers,further creating an idea that"perfection"is a requirement,and that it must be purchased,no matter what the cost.In my opinion,skills,rather than appearance,should determine how successful a person is in his future career.

              21.We can know from the passage that the author works as    
              A.a doctor 
              B.a teacher
              C.a model
              D.a reporter
              22.Many graduates today turn to cosmetic surgery to    
              A.marry a better man/woman
              B.become a model
              C.attract more admirers
              D.get an advantage over others in job-hunting
              23.According to the passage,the author believes that    
              A.everyone should purchase perfection,whatever the cost
              B.it's right for graduates to ask for others to help them out in hunting for jobs
              C.media are to blame for misleading young people in their seeking for surgery
              D.it is one's appearance instead of skills that really matters in one's career
              24.What does the author think of his height?    
              A.He just accepts it as it is.
              B.He tries to increase his height through surgery.
              C.He always wears shoes with thick soles to hide the fact.
              D.He hates to be called a short man.
            • 6. How many men do housework?Recently a European Commission tried to find out people's ideas and reactions to the women's movement.As part of their survey (调查),they asked many men and women the question,"Who does the housework?"The men answered very differently from the women!
              The housework they asked people about were:preparing meals,washing dishes,cleaning the house and babysitting.48% of British husbands said they did these things.37% of Danish men helped in the house.But only 15% of Italian men said they did the housework,many of them said they never helped at all!
              But there was an interesting point of view from the wives.According to British wives,only 38% of their husbands helped in the house.And Italian wives said that their husbands hardly ever helped.The Italian and British men did not tell the truth!The Commission found that Danish men were the most trustful husbands; their answers were the same as their wives'answers.
              Do the men you know help in the house?Do you think the survey gives a true picture in your experience?Write and tell us what you think.
              55.The survey was carried out in    
              A.BritainB.EuropeC.Denmark      D.Italy
              56.The subject for the survey is    
              A.how many boys do the housework
              B.who are more diligent(勤劳),wives or husbands
              C.how many women do the housework
              D.who does the housework at home
              57.From the passage we can see that    
              A.there were more husbands who did the housework than wives
              B.husbands did half of the housework all the time
              C.there were more wives who did the housework than husbands.
              D.wives did all the housework at home
              58.More     husbands help in the house than     husbands.

            • 7. I have a rule for travel:Never carry a map.I prefer to ask for directions.Foreign visitors are often puzzled in Japan because most streets there don't have names.In Japan,people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names.For example,the Japanese will say to travelers,"Go straight down to the corner.Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market.The post office is across from the bus stop."
                  In the countryside of the American Midwest,usually there are not many landmarks.There are no mountains,so the land is very flat(平坦的).In many places there are no towns or buildings within miles.Instead of landmarks,people will tell you directions and distance.In Kansas or Iowa,for example,people will say,"Go north two miles.Turn east,and then go another mile."
              People in Los Angeles,California,have no idea of distance on the map:They measure distance by means of time,not miles."How far away is the post office?"you ask."Oh,"they answer,"It's about five minutes from here."You say,"Yes,but how many miles away is it?"They don't know.
                  People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because visitors seldom understand the Greek language.Instead of giving you the direction,a Greek will often say,"Follow me."Then he'll lead you through the streets of the city to the post office.
                   Sometimes a person doesn't know the answer to your question.What happens in this situation?A New Yorker might say,"Sorry,I have no idea."But in Yucatan,Mexico,no one answers,"I don't know."People in Yucatan think that"I don't know"is impolite.They usually give an answer,often a wrong one.A visitor can get very,very lost in Yucatan!
                 One thing will help you everywhere-in Japan,in the United States,in Greece,in Mexico,or in any other place.You might not understand a person's words,but maybe you can understand his body language.He or she will usually turn and then point in the correct direction.Go in that direction,and you may find the post office!
              41.The passage mainly tells us that    
              A.never carry a map for travel
              B.there are not many landmarks in the American Midwest
              C.there are different ways to give directions in different parts of the world
              D.New Yorkers often say,"I have no idea,"but people in Yucatan,Mexico,never say this.
              42.The passage says,"In Japan,people use landmarks in their directions."The word"landmarks"means    
              A.building names
              B.street names
              C.there are different ways to give directions in different parts of the world
              D.buildings or places which are easily recognized
              43.In which place do people tell distance by means of time?    
              A.Japan       B.American Midwest      C.Los Angeles,California      D.Greece

            • 8. A peer is a person who is about the same age as you.Peers affect your life,whether you know it or not,just by spending time with you.
              Peers can have a good effect on one another.Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in solar system.Maybe you got others excited about your new favorite book and now everyone's reading it.
              However,sometimes peers affect one another in another way.For example,one kid in school might try to get another to cut class with him,your soccer friend might try to persuade you to be mean to another player and never pass her the ball,or a kid in the neighborbood might want you to shoplift with him.Some kids give in to peer pressure because they want to be liked,to fit in,of because they worry that other kids may make fun of them if they don't go along with the group.Others may go along because they are curious to try something new that others are doing.The idea that"everyone's doing it"nay influence some kids to leave their better judgments or their common senses behind.
              Peer pressure can be extremely strong and hard to get rid of.Experiments have shown how peer pressure can influence someone to change her/his mind from what she/he knows for sure is a correct answer to the incorrect answer-just because everyone else gives the incorrect answer!That holds true for people of any age in peer pressure situations.
              It can be hard to walk away from peer pressure,but it can be done.Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do.Inner strength and self-confidence can help you stand firm,walk away and resist doing something when you know better.

            • 9. The US and UK share a great amount of pop culture phenomenon.However.despite their many similarities,there are huge cultural differences between these two countries.The following are some ways that Americans offend Brits.and vice versa.without knowing it.
              In both the UK and US.a V sign made with the index(食指) and middle finger pointing up and the palm facing outwards is known as"V for Victory.It is also the peace sign.In Britain.this same sign with the palm facing inwards is very rude.But for Americans.it simply doesn't mean anything at all.
              The ward"Quite"seems to be a common word.Americans use it,Brits use it.so it must be the same,right?Well no,not quite.An American guest may upset her UK hosts by describing their dinner as"quite good".In British English,"quite good"only means pretty good or fairly good-in other words.the meal was passable but could have been better.But in American English.it's much more positive."Quite good"means very good.
              Brits exchange good-natured insults ( 调侃)  because they're too conservative and emotionally reserved to say how they really feel.The stronger their friendship is,the more they can make fun of each other and still come away with a warm feeling.But this is not how Americans socialize.Tell a US friend he's an idiot( 白痴),and you likely won't get invited to his wedding.
              When Brits meet foreigners.they're not always as welcoming as they should be.Americans in particular can take this the wrong way-they say that the British are known for being cold and unfriendly.For Americans.looking shocked when someone says to you"Hi!How are you today?"instead of immediately responding with equal enthusiasm.is seen as rude.

              61.What is the text mainly about?.    
              A.The cultural differences between the US and UK.

              C.The exchanges between American and British culture.
              D.The differences between American and British English.
              62.The"V"sign with the palm facing outwards    
              A.means different thing in the UK and US
              B.is very rude for British people
              C.stands for victory in both the UK and US
              D.means nothing at all in the US
              63.When an American describes the dinner as"quite good",he means that    
              A.it is not so good                       B.it is just so-so
              C.it is acceptable                        D.it is really good
              64.When you make fun of an American friend as"an idiot",he will    
              A.have a warm feeling
              B.never take it too seriously
              C.invite you to his wedding
              D.get annoyed
              65.We can learn from the last paragraph that    
              A.the British are more open-minded
              B.the Americans are more welcoming
              C.the British are easier to please
              D.the Americans seldom respond a greeting.
