She smiled as she led her students to the bus that would take them to the Greenly Apple Orchard（果园）.The bus ride was bumpy and the kids were a little noisy, but still Miss Joan was smiling.The bus stopped in front of the Greenly Orchard Store and the class got off quickly and quietly. Miss Joan made sure everyone was there. “What a glorious,sunny, apple picking day,” Miss Joan announced with her grandest smile.Mr. Greenly was there to greet them. “Let see, there are eighteen children and two adults atMiss Joan held u p the brochure in her hand. “It says that the price is two dollars each,”she pointed ort. “That‟s what I collected from everyone.”“We‟ve had to raise the price,” Mr. Greenly stated.“You sent me this brochure after we made our reservation,” Miss Joan complained, “and it says two dollars!”“Miss Joan, if you look at the bottom of this brochure,” Mr. Greenly said, “you‟ll notice a very important statement.”Sure enough, in very tiny letters, it said, “Prices are subject to change without notice.”Miss Joan was determined to keep her good mood. She took a twenty dollars bill out of her own purse and handed it to Mr. Greenly with the forty dollars she had in an envelope.“Now children, do you all have your baskets?” Miss Joan called out. “Remember, you can pic k as many apples six apples each.”“I beg your pardon!”Miss Joan was not smiling now. “The brochure says,…ALL YOU CAN PICK‟!”Mr. Greenly pointed to the tiniest letters Miss Joan had ever almost seen. It also says, “Terms and conditions of group reservat ions are subject to change without notice.”Miss Joan‟s good mood was now history. She didn‟t want to set a bad example for her students, so she said in a calm and quiet voice, “We‟re going home, give me our money back, please.”31.How many dollars did Miss Joan hand to Mr. Greenly?A. 20.B. 40.C. 60.D. 1832.The phrase “subject to change without notice” suggests .A.Mr. Greenly could change the terms at will.B.the customers should read the brochure carefullyC.Mr. Greenly could determine what apples to be picked.D.the customers should be informed beforehand.33.The students could not pick as many apples as they would like because .A.they were children.B. there were not enough apples.C. they had made a group reservation.D. they would eat up too many apples.34.“Miss Joan‟s good mood was now history?”(the last paragraph) means .A.Miss Joan had been happy until that moment.B.Miss Joan was no longer interested in history.C.Miss Joan taught her students the history of the orchard.D.Miss Joan was good at concealing her feelings35.What can we learn about Miss Joan from the story?A.

There has been a strong tendency to use them interchangeably as though they mean the same thing, but they are not the same.Although modern in their usage, the two words derived from ancient Latin. The word civilization is based on the Latin civis, of a city. Thus civilization, in its most essential meaning, isit would seem that certain insects, such as ants or bees, are also civilized. They live and work together in social groups. So do some microorganisms. But there is more to civilization, and that is what culture brings to it. So, civilization is inseparable from culture.The word culture is derived from the Latin verb colere, till the soil. But colere also has a wider range of meanings. It may, like civis, mean inhabiting a town or village. But most of its definitions suggest a process of starting and promoting growth and development. One may cultivate a garden; one may also cultivate one‟s interests, mind, and abilities. In its modern use the word culture refers to all the positive aspects and achievements of humanity that make mankind different from the rest of the animal world. Culture has grown out of creativity, a characteristic that seems to be unique to human beings.One of the basic and best-know features of civilization and culture is the presence of tools. But more important than their simple existence is that the tools are always being improved and enlarged upon, a result of creativity. It took thousands of years to get from the first wheel to the latest, most advanced model of automobile.It is the concept of humans as toolmakers and improvers that differentiates them from other animals. A monkey may use a stick to knock a banana from a tree, but that stick will never, through a monkey‟s clevernes s, be modified into a hook or a ladder. Monkeys have never devised a spoken language, written a book, composed a melody, built a house, or painted a portrait. To say that birds build nests and beavers(海狸)their dens is to miss the point. People once lived in caves, but their cleverness, imagination, and creativity led them to progress beyond caves to buildings.36. What does the author think of the words “civilization”and “culture”?A. They are identical.B. They are different concepts.C. They can often be used interchangeably.D. They are defined differently by different people.37. According to the author the word “civilization” originally refers to .A. people‟s way of life in citiesB. people‟s ability to live together in citiesC. a type of social organizationsD. an advanced level of social life38. The Latin verb colere originally means “”.A. live in a cityB. develop oneselfC. promote growthD. cultivate the land39. The author believes that creativity .A. is a unique feature of civilized beingsB. brings forth the improvement of toolsC. is the result of human developmentD. helps the advance of culture40. The author mentions monkeys in the last paragraph to show that .A. monkeys are the same as birdsB. people once lived in caves like monkeysC. monkeys can never develop into human beingsD. man is different from other animals such as monkeysPassage ThreeThe huge growth of global “ecotourism”industry is becoming an increasing concern for conservationists with mounting evidence that many wild species do not respond well to contact with human beings. Overexposure to tourists has been linked to stress, abnormal behaviour and adverse health effects in species such as polar bears, dolphins and gorillas(大猩猩)，says a report in New Scientist.While regulated ecotourism can help conservation efforts by encouraging people to manage endangered species and their habitats, many projects are poorly designed and unregulated, it says.environmentally friendly policies and operations.”While regulated ecotourism can help conservation efforts by encouraging people to manage endangered species and their habitats, “many projects are p oorly designed and hint they are based on environmentally friendly policies and operations.”Ecotourism is growing by 10 to 30 percent a year and an estimated 20 percent of tourists are thought to visit a conservation-based project. Philip Seddon, of the University of Otago in New Zealand, said that although most tourist projects conformed to basic guidelines on land use and not scaring wildlife, their full impact was rarely considered.“Transmission of disease to wildlife, or subtle changes to wildlife health through disturbance of daily routines or increased stress levels may translate to lowered survival and breeding,” he said. Research at the University of Auckland has shown that dolphins become restless and overactive when many tourist boats are present. When three or more boats are near, the dolphins rest for 0.5 percent of the time, compared with 68 percent when they are accompanied by a single boat. The findings are backed up by studies of dolphins in Britain. Researchers at the University of Manitoba in Canada have found that male polar bears easily disturbed by tourist vehicles, with a possible effect on their heart rate and metabolism(新陈代谢). That could reduce body fat levels and fitness, critical for survival.In Africa, gorillas have picked up parasites introduced to their habitat by tourists and mongooses(蠓)have caught lung diseases from human beings. Experts said that the answer to the problems was better regulation and supervision of ecotourism. The Galapagos Islands, where visitor numbers are strictly controlled, is a good model.41. Ecotourism is meant to .A. have tourists help in the conservation of wildlifeB. have wild species respond well to contact with humansC. make wild species reduce stress and abnormal behaviourD. make conservationists more concerned with wildlife42. According to New Scientist, many ecotourist projects .A. really encourage people to protect wildlife and its habitatB. strictly follow environmentally friendly policiesC. actually lack proper examination and official approvalD. seriously damage the habitats of endangered species43. What will happen to wildlife ul timately if the present “ecotourism” practice goes on?A. It will disturb their life.B. It will affect their health.C. It will increase their stress.D. It will threaten their survival.44. According to the passage, the growth in the global “ecotourism” industry .A. reflects an increasing concern for conservationB. arouses a growing concern for conservationC. coincides with a mounting concern for conservationD. originates from a grater concern for conservation45. According to the passage, a solution to the “ecotourism” problem is to .A. encourage people to manage endangered speciesB. reduce the exposure of wildlife to human beingsC. help wild animals increase their fitnessD. prevent wildlife from catching human diseasesComputers can beat chess champion Gary Kasparov at his game, count all the atoms in a nuclear explosion, and calculate complex figures in a fraction of a second, but they still fail at the slight differences in language translation. Artificial Intelligence computers have large amounts of memory, capable of storing huge translating dictionaries and extensive lists of grammar rules. Yet, today‟s best computer language translators have just a 60 percent accuracy rate. Scientist s are still unable to program the computer with human-like common sense reasoning power.Computer language translation is called Machine Translation, or MT. While not perfect, MT is surprisingly good. MT was designed to process dry, technical language that people find tedious to translate. Computers can translate basic phrases, such as “You foot bone‟s connected to your ankle bone, your ankle bone‟s connected to your leg bone.” They can translate more difficult phrases, such as “Which witch is which?” Computers can also accurately translate “Wild thing, you make my heart sing!” into other languages because they can understand individual words, as long as the words are pre-programmed in their dictionary.But highly sensitive types of translating, such as important diplomatic conversations, are beyond the scope of computer translating programs. Human translators use intuitional meaning, not logic, to process words and phrases into other languages. A human can properly translate the phrase, “The pen is in the pe n(围养禽畜的圈),” because most humans know that it means that a writing instrument is in a small enclosed space. Many times, computers do not have the ability to determine in which way two identical words in one sentence are to be used.In addition to using massive rule-programmed machines, computer programmers are also trying to teach computers to learn how to think for themselves through the “experience” of translating. Even with these efforts, programmers admit that a “thinking” computer might not ever be invented in the future.46. Computers today are capable of .A. defeating the best chess player in the worldB. telling subtle differences between languagesC. translating over 60 percent of difficult textsD. doing human-like common sense reasoning47. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. Computers can translate dry and difficult phrases.B. Computers can understand sensitive language.C. Computers can translate technical language.D. Computers can understand pre-programmed words.48. The major problem with computer translating programs is that computers .A. can not translate illogical sentencesB. do not have a large enough capacity of memoryC. can not understand grammatical rulesD. do not have intuition to process language49. To improve machine translation, computer programmers are trying to .A. use powerful rule-programmed computersB. teach computers to think by practiceC. have computers compile translating dictionariesD. add explanations of words in computer programs50. The passage suggests that .A. the accuracy rate of machine translation cannot be raisedB. it is impossible for computers to think as humans doC. only technical language is suitable for machine translationD. it is impossible to determine of identical wordsSeveral years ago during the dot-com passion, Manhattan lawyer John Kennedy sometimes wore a dark blue suit to meet potential Internet clients. But he soon realized that his conservative clothes were a strike against him before he even shook hands. So he began to do business in casual, open-shirt clothes.But now the tables have turned. Today Silicon Valley executives are the ones often coming out in suits. No wonder that Fortune 500 executives are dusting off their silk ties and pants.” I would say there is a trend now toward a little more business dress,” said Kennedy. “I find myself wearing suits more.”While there isn‟t a rush toward formal office wear, clothiers and executives say the workplace uniform is heading that way. In many offices, men are wearing jackets, ties and pants more frequently than a year age. Top women executives never went as casual as men, so the shift doesn‟t affect them as dramatically.“Business casual” took several years to catch on. It started with casual Fridays, evolved to casual summers, then became casual everyday. A return to the button-down look also will take time, observers say. Lehman Brothers is one of the few major firms that has officially returned to a formal dress policy, at least for offices that clients visit. Men were told to wear suits and ties and women to wear suits or dresses. The shift is due to a rethinking of work environments and more contacts with clients as the firm has grown.Observers mention many factors driving the trend. Internet companies helped lead the dress-down movement and other industries followed suit to attract workers. But with the collapse of many dot-coms, the relaxed look is becoming a style to avoid. Moreover, as the economy stumbles, more people are hunting for jobs or trying to keep the ones they have, and appearance counts.US President Bush wears a coat and tie in the White House office and expects his staff to dress “professionally,” which some say sets a tome for the nation.Chuck Wardell, managing director of a recruiting firm, believes a lot of employees like a stiffer uniform. “They‟re going to work. They don‟t want to feel like they‟re going to a picnic.”51.”Business casual” was prevalent several years ago because _____.A. the Manhattan law business grew very quicklyB. shaking hands with clients became popularC. the country was fighting the conservativesD. the Internet companies boomed then52. When the “bu siness ca sual” prevailed, _____.A. businessmen wore ties only in workplaceB. businessmen didn‟t wear ties at allC. businesswomen didn‟t wear formally in workplaceD. businesswomen still wore formally everywhere53. The Fortune 500 executives__________.A. set the trend toward more casual wearB. are particular about what they wearC. begin to wear suits more often than beforeD. are usually indifferent to fashion trend54. At the beginning of the “business casual” trend, business people wore casually___________.A. when meeting clientsB. on weekendsC. in summerD. almost every day55. It is implied in the passage that the change of business dress from the casual to the formalreflects_____.A. the changed of people‟s taste in fashionB. the ups and downs of the fashion industryC. the ups and downs of the Internet companiesD. people‟s different preference in business dressPart IV CloseThe United States has historically had higher rates of marriage than those of other industrialized countries. The current annual marriage 56 in the United States ---about 9 new marriages for every 1,000 people ---is 57 higher than it is in other industrialized countries. However, marriage is 58 as widespread as it was several decades ago. 59 of American adults who are married 60 _ form 72 percent in 1970 to 60 percent in 2002.This does not mean that large numbers of people will remain unmarried 61 their lives. Throughout the 20th century, about 90 percent of Americans married at some 62 in their lives. Experts_ 63 that about the same proportion of today‟s young adults will eventually marry.The timing of marriage has varied 64 over the past century. In 1995 the average age of women in the United States at the time of their first marriage was 25.The average age of men was about 27.Men and women in the United States marry for the first time at an average of five years later than people did in the 1950s. 65 ,young adults of the 1950s married younger than did any previous 66 in U.S. history. Today‟s later age of marriage is 67 the age of marriage between 1890 and 1940. Moreover, a greater proportion of the population was married (95 percent)during the 1950s than at any time before 68 .Experts do not agree on why the “marriage rush” of the late 1940s and 1950s occurred, but most social scientists believe it represented a 69 to the return of peaceful life and prosperity after 15 years of severe economic 70 and war.56. A. rate B. ratio C. percentage D. poll57. A. potentially B. intentionally C. randomly D. substantially相当大的58. A. not any longer B. no more C. no longer D. not any more59. A. A proportion B.

A. refusal B. realization C. response D. reality70. A. repression B. aggression C. restriction D. depressionPart V Error Detection71. It is an accepted custom for guests to take their gifts to the wedding reception when the coupleinvited them to attend.72. Some international students use a cassette recorder to make tapes of their classes so that theycan repeat the lectures again.73. Despite of diligent efforts to promote domestic production during the war years, the ContinentalArmy had to rely primarily on captures and imports for much of its military hardware and even for clothing.74. In a sense, farmers began primitive genetic engineering at the dawn of agriculture, which theykept seeds from their best plants, gradually improving the quality of successive generations.。

Passage Two Question 26 to 30 are based on the following passage. Anyone who has a fat friend or who is perhaps himself fat knows only too well now little provision our society makes for such people. Even the daily round provides numerous problems. There are few pieces of clothing that can be bought seats in cinemas or theatres are so uncomfortable that few fat people attend them. Fortunately good performances are rare. Home furniture is also hopelessly inadequate. Then there are the problems of having a bath the standard size of bath just does not allow a fat person to take up a horizontal (⽔平的) position but demands him to stand in it. In today’s world however these are minor worries in a culture where slimness is in fashion and all things desirable come to the person with an attractively thin and delicate figure. Especially in women this attribute is a must if they are to compete in the marriage market. In fact slimness is not necessarily either an ideal condition from a physiological point of view or a natural characteristic. But this is of little comfort to the fat man or women living in our present society. This fashion has been just another aspect of the desire for conformity (⼀致) we have charts showing correct weights for each height and there are whole counters in many shops given over to the display of non-fattening foods. The fat person is doubly unfortunate in that be cannot hide his non-conformity unlike so many of us who have perhaps more subtle forms of eccentricity (怪癖). In those cases where fatness is the result of over-eating it is of course a reaction to some form of inner conflict and a much less harmful one than say drug abuse. Where the over weight is due to some disorder of the body the fat person is an all-round loser for not only has he a physical illness to cope with but is mocked for having it by many people who should know better. Perhaps fashion will eventually change to allow a fat frame to become acceptable but at present it seems that the pencil-slim fashion models are in safe jobs.26.

Appreciation of sculpture(雕塑) depends upon the ability to respond to form in three dimensions. That is perhaps why sculpture has been described as the most difficult of all arts certainly it is more difficult than the arts which involve appreciation of flat forms shape in only first distinguishes only two-dimensional shape it cannot judge distances depths. Later for its personal safely and practical needs it has to develop (partly by means of touch) the ability to judge roughly three-dimensional distances. But having satisfied the requirements of practical necessity most people go no further. Though they may attain considerable accuracy in perceiving flat form they do not make the further intellectual and emotional effort needed to perceive form in its full spatial (空间的) existence. This is what the sculptor (雕塑家) must do. He must think of and use form in its full spatial completeness. He gets the solid shape as it were inside his head – he thinks of it whatever its size as if he were holding it completely in his hand. He mentally visualizes a complex form from all round itself he knows while he looks at one side what the other side is like he identifies him self with its center of gravity its mass its weight. And the sensitive observer of sculpture must also learn to feel shape simply as shape not as description. He must for example perceive an egg as a simple single solid shape quite apart from its significance as food or from the literary idea that it will become a bird a cat a heart a tree a gate a book a bone. From these he can go on toappreciate more complex forms or combinations of several forms.31. Sculpture is regarded as the most difficult of all arts because it can be appreciated only by people who ______.A、can judge roughly three-dimensional distancesB、can perceive form in its full spatial existenceC、have attained accuracy in perceiving flat formD、have met the requirements of practical necessity32.

Answer the questions on the basis of what is stated or implied in the passages and in any introductory material that may be provided.Questions 9-10 are based on the following passage.Newspaper editor and political commentator Henry Louis Mencken was a force of nature, brushing aside all objects animal and mineral in his headlong rush to the publicity that surely awaited him. He seized each day, shook it to within an inch of its life, and then gaily went on to the next. No matter where his writing appeared, it was quoted widely, his pungently outspoken opinions debated hotly. Nobody else could make so many people so angry, or make so many others laugh so hard.9. In lines 4-5, the words "seized" and "shook" help establish which aspect of Mencken's personality?(A) His code of honor(B) His sense of humor(C) His vindictiveness(D) His intensity(E) His petulance10. The public response described in lines 6-8 most strongly suggests that Mencken's writings were(A) authoritative(B) controversial(C) arrogant(D) informal(E) frivolousQuestions 11-12 are based on the following passage.The ability to see the situation as your opponents see it, as difficult as it may be, is one of the most important skills that you can possess as a negotiator. You must know more than simply that they see things differently. It is not enough to study them like beetles under a microscope; you need to know what it feels like to be a beetle. To accomplish this you should be prepared to withhold judgment as you "try on" their views. Your opponents may well believe that their views are right as strongly as you believe yours are.11. The reference to beetles in lines 5-6 serves to suggest that(A) people need to be more attuned to their surroundings(B) effective negotiation is more of a science than an art(C) people can be made to do what they would prefer not to do(D) effective negotiation requires identify- ing with a different viewpoint(E) people feel uncomfortable when their actions are under scrutiny12. The primary purpose of the passage is to(A) persuade people to defend their positions on critical issues(B) indicate a specific ability that is useful in negotiation(C) encourage people to be more accepting of others(D) argue that few people are fit for the demands of negotiation(E) suggest that negotiators should always seek consenQuestions 13-24 are based on the following passages.Passage 1 is from a 2003 book that examines the famous "IHave a Dream" speech delivered by Martin Luther King, Jr. at the historic March on Washington in August 1963. Passage 2 is from a 2000 biography of Martin Luther King, Jr. written by an African American scholar.Passage 1The ability of the "I Have a Dream" speech to highlight King's early career at the expense of his later career accounts for the tone of impatience and betrayal that often5 appears when modern-day supporters of King's agenda talk about the speech. Former Georgia state legislator Julian Bond said in 1986 that commemorations of King seemed to "focus almost entirely on Martin Luther King the dreamer, not on Martin King the antiwar activist, not on Martin King the challenger of the economic order, not on Martin King10 the opponent of apartheid, not on the complete Martin Luther King." One King scholar has proposed a ten-year moratorium on reading or listening to the "I Have a Dream" speech, in the hopes that America will then discover the rest of King's legacy.15 This proposal effectively concedes that King's magnificent address cannot be recovered from the misuse and overquotation it has suffered since his death. But it is not clear that this is so. Even now, upon hearing the speech, one is struck by the many forms of King's genius.20 Many people can still remember the first time they heard "I Have a Dream," and they tend tospeak of that memory with the reverence reserved for a religious experience. At the very least, reflecting on the "I Have a Dream" speech should be an opportunity to be grateful for the astonishing25 transformation of America that the freedom movement wrought. In just under a decade, the civil rights movement brought down a system of segregation that stood essentially unaltered since Reconstruction. King's dreams of an America free from racial discrimination are still some30 distance away, but it is astounding how far the nation has come since that hot August day in 1963. Segregation in the South has been dismantled; there are no longer "Whites Only" signs; segregationist governors do not try to prevent Black children from entering public schools.35 Toward the end of his life, King preached a sermon entitled "Ingratitude," in which he called ingratitude "one of the greatest of all sins," because the sinner "fail[s] to realize his dependence on others." The annual Martin Luther King holiday is properly a day of national thanksgiving, a time 40 for the nation to recognize the immense debt it owes to King and the thousands of heroes of the civil rights movement for saving the soul of America.Passage 2Martin Luther King was at his best when he was willing to reshape the wisdom of many of his45 intellectual predecessors. He ingeniously harnessed their ideas to his views to advocate sweeping social change. He believed that his early views on race failed to challenge America fundamentally. He later confessed that he had underestimated how deeply entrenched racism was in50 America. If Black Americans could not depend on goodwill to create social change, they had to provoke social change through bigger efforts at nonviolent direct action. This meant that Blacks and their allies had to obtain political power. They also had to try to restructure55 American society, solving the riddles of poverty and economic inequality.This is not the image of King that is celebrated on Martin Luther King Day. Many of King's admirers are uncomfortable with a focus on his mature beliefs. They60 seek to deflect unfair attacks on King's legacy by shrouding him in the cloth of superhuman heroism. In truth, this shroud is little more than romantic tissue. King's image has often suffered a sad fate. His strengths have been needlessly exaggerated, his weaknesses wildly over-65 played. King's true legacy has been lost to cultural amnesia. As a nation, we have emphasized King's aspiration to save America through inspiring words and sacrificial deeds. Time and again we replay the powerful image of King standing on a national stage70 in the shadow of the Lincoln Memorial mouthing perhaps the most famous four words ever uttered by a Black American: "I have a dream." For most Americans, those words capture King's unique genius. They express his immortal longing for freedom, a longing that is familiar75 to every person who dares imagine a future beyond unjust laws and unfair customs. The edifying universality of those four words—who hasn't dreamed, and who cannot identify with people whose dreams of a better world are punished with violence?—helps to explain their durability. But those80 words survive, too, because they comfort folk who would rather entertain the dreams of unfree people than confront their rage and despair.13. The authors of both passages agree that King's "I Have a Dream" speech(A) had significant global as well as national influence(B) has been imitated by many of King's followers(C) had a profound impact on many Americans(D) was typical of King's thought as a whole(E) questioned the ethical beliefs of many Americans14. It can be inferred that, for Julian Bond, a portrait of "the complete Martin Luther King" (lines 10-11) would(A) celebrate King's influence both within and out-side the United States(B) acknowledge the logical lapses in some of King's later work(C) compare King with other significant figures of his era(D) achieve a balance between King's earlier concerns and his later ones(E) reveal information about King's personal as well as his public life15. The author of Passage 2 would most likely view Julian Bond's statement in lines 7-11 of Passage 1 with(A) outright disapproval(B) considerable surprise(C) cynical mistrust(D) cautious optimism(E) complete agreement16. In line 17, "suffered" most nearly means(A) endured(B) felt(C) prolonged(D) tolerated(E) lamented17. Lines 31-34 ("Segregation in . . . schools") serve primarily to(A) express ambitious hopes for the future(B) challenge the accuracy of historical accounts(C) provide a contrast with other cultures(D) illustrate a point with particular examples(E) defend a series of unusual occurrences18. The author of Passage 1 mentions the "sermon" (line 35) primarily in order to(A) show King's effectiveness as a public speaker(B) demonstrate the broad range of King's interests(C) illustrate an important trait that King possessed(D) question King's ability to empathize with others(E) remind readers of a significant obligation to King19. The author of Passage 2 would most likely characterize the view of King expressed in lines38-42 of Passage 1 ("The annual . . . America") as(A) contradictory(B) insightful(C) atypical(D) simplistic(E) arrogant20. Lines 57-58 ("This is . . . Day") mark a transition within Passage 2 from a(A) consideration of King's views to a critique of people's understanding of them(B) challenge to King's beliefs to an acceptance of their cultural resonance(C) discussion of King's intellectual predecessors to an analysis of his legacy(D) celebration of King's strengths to an examination of his weaknesses(E) defense of King's aspirations to an attack on those who fail to support them21. Lines 76-79 in Passage 2 ("The edifying . . . durability") are best described as(A) contesting the notion of King's historical importance that is advanced by the author of Passage 1(B) providing an explanation for the view of King's speech that is expressed by the author of Passage 1(C) challenging the portrait of the civil rights movement that is presented by the author of Passage 1(D) offering a humorous anecdote that supports a statement made by the author of Passage 1(E) dismissing a perspective that is similarly rejected by the author of Passage 122. Unlike the author of Passage 2, the author of Passage 1 develops his or her argument by(A) citing an authority with whom he or she disagrees(B) referring to a famous speech delivered by King(C) discussing the universal human trait of dreaming(D) dismissing those who fail to understand the subtlety of King's thought(E) assuming that his or her readers are completely unfamiliar with King's ideas23. The author of Passage 2 would most likely argue that commemorations focus on "Martin Luther King the dreamer" (line 7 of Passage 1) because people find this aspect of King to be(A) courageous(B) unpretentious(C) reassuring(D) provocative(E) unexpected24. Which best characterizes the overall relationship between the two passages?(A) Passage 2 rejects the political goals that are described in Passage 1.(B) Passage 2 helps account for the responses to a speech discussed in Passage 1.(C) Passage 2 romanticizes a person who is objectively depicted in Passage 1.(D) Passage 2 recounts the history of a national holiday that is celebrated in Passage 1.(E) Passage 2 reflects on a figure who is denounced in Passage 1.。

从经济角度来看，全球化促使了跨国界投资和商业往来的兴起，从而把全世界所有的国家整合成一个巨大的国际市场。

从文化角度来看，全球化既谈不上是积极的，也谈不上是消极的：这是需要根据我们自身的观点而定的。

Section BWith the rapid development of the social economy in China, people’s living standard s and medical industry are improved．Many people are severely worried about the increasing number of older people. Men of insight say that it brings us not only the enormous pressure, but also great opportunities behind it as well as abundant resources of olders such as the intelligence and experience. We must turn pressure into opportunity.Part II WritingIn 2004, the Ministy of Education of China promulgated an act that college students on campus can get married, which aroused the widespread debate in the whole society. As to this special issue, different people have different opinions. As a student, I think this behavior should be banned. My reasons are as follows:The first and the most important one is that college students’ marriage is not beneficial to study. Being college students, young people should spare no effort to study hard to broaden their horizons. Marriage means they must take on lots of responsibilities of marriage. So it may have negative impact on their study. Second, when college students marry each other, the young couple will live together, which means they will be estranged from their classmates. It is harmful to their ability to communicate with others. Third, their marriages will put a financial burden on their family and themselves. In general, college students are still financed by their family. If they want to get married, they have to ask more money from their family or make money in their spare time. It is a heavy burden they have to shoulder.In a word, I don’t approve of college students’ marriage. It will disturb the students’ normal life and is not beneficial to their future.Paper One1----10 CDADB CAACC 11----20 ACACD CACCB21----30 BACCD ABBCB 31----40 ADAAD BCDBA41----50 DBCBD BABAC 51----60 DABCB DDAAB61----70 CCABC DAABD 71----80 CBDBC BCDCBPaper TwoPart I TranslationSection A野生动物管理部门首要关心的事就是保护和改善野生动物自然栖息地以使动物们有足够的食物和水来生存。

Answer the questions on the basis of what is stated or implied in the passages and in any introductory material that may be provided.Questions 6-9 are based on the following passages. Passage 1I know what your e-mail in-box looks like, and it isn't pretty: a babble of come-ons and lies from hucksters and con artists. To find your real e-mail, you must wade through the torrent of fraud and obscenity known5 politely as "unsolicited bulk e-mail" and colloquially as "spam."In a perverse tribute to the power of the online revolution, we are all suddenly getting the same mail: easy weight loss, get-rich-quick schemes, etc. The crush of these messages is now numbered in billions per day. "It's becoming10 a major systems and engineering and network problem," says one e-mail expert. "Spammers are gaining control of the Internet."Passage 2Many people who hate spam assume that it is protected as free speech. Not necessarily so. The United States15 Supreme Court has previously ruled that individuals may preserve a threshold of privacy. "Nothing in the Constitution compels us to listen to or view any unwanted communication, whatever its merit," wrote Chief Justice Warren Burger in a 1970 decision. "We therefore20 categorically reject the argument that a vendor has a right to send unwanted material into the home of another." With regard to a seemingly similar problem, the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 made it illegal in the United States to send unsolicited faxes; why not extend the act to include25 unsolicited bulk e-mail?6.The primary purpose of Passage 1 is to(A) make a comparison(B) dispute a hypothesis(C) settle a controversy(D) justify a distinction(E) highlight a concern7. The primary purpose of Passage 2 is to(A) confirm a widely held belief(B) discuss the inadequacies of a ruling(C) defend a controversial technology(D) analyze a widespread social problem(E) lay the foundation for a course of action8. What would be the most likely reaction by the author of Passage 1 to the argument cited in lines 16-21 of Passage 2 ("Nothing . . . another")?(A) Surprise at the assumption that freedom of speech is indispensable to democracy(B) Dismay at the Supreme Court's vigorous defense of vendors' rights(C) Hope that the same reasoning would be applied to all unsolicited e-mail(D) Concern for the plight of mass marketers facing substantial economic losses(E) Appreciation for the political complexity ofthe debate about spam9. Unlike the author of Passage 1, the author of Passage 2(A) criticizes a practice(B) offers an example(C) proposes a solution(D) states an opinion(E) quotes an expertQuestions 10-16 are based on the following passage.The following passage is adapted from a novel set in the early twentieth century. Mr. Beebe, a clergyman, is speaking with Cecil V yse about a mutual acquaintance, Lucy Honeychurch. Miss Honeychurch has recently returned from a journey with her older cousin and chaperone, Miss Bartlett."Lucy Honeychurch has no faults," said Cecil, with grave sincerity."I quite agree. At present she has none.""At present?""I'm not cynical. I'm only thinking of my pet theory about Miss Honeychurch. Does it seem reasonable that she should play piano so wonderfully, and live so quietly? I suspect that someday she shall be wonderful in both. The water-tight compartments in her will break down, and music and life will mingle. Then we shall have her heroically good, heroically bad—too heroic, perhaps, to be good or bad."Cecil found his companion interesting."And at present you think her not wonderful as far as life goes?""Well, I must say I've only seen her at Tunbridge Wells, where she was not wonderful, and at Florence. She wasn't wonderful in Florence either, but I kept on expecting that she would be." "In what way?"Conversation had become agreeable to them, and they were pacing up and down the terrace."I could as easily tell you what tune she'll play next. There was simply the sense that she found wings and meant to use them. I can show you a beautiful picture in my diary. Miss Honeychurch as a kite, Miss Bartlett holding the string. Picture number two: the string breaks."The sketch was in his diary, but it had been made afterwards, when he viewed things artistically. At the time he had given surreptitious tugs to the string himself."But the string never broke?""No. I mightn't have seen Miss Honeychurch rise, but I should certainly have heard Miss Bartlett fall.""It has broken now," said the young man in low, vibrating tones.Immediately he realized that of all the conceited, ludicrous, contemptible ways of announcing an engagement this was the worst. He cursed his love of metaphor; had he suggested that he was a star and that Lucy was soaring up to reach him?"Broken? What do you mean?""I meant," Cecil said stiffly, "that she is going to marry me."The clergyman was conscious of some bitter disappointment which he could not keep out of his voice."I am sorry; I must apologize. I had no idea you were intimate with her, or I should never have talked in this flippant, superficial way. Y ou ought to have stopped me." And down in the garden hesaw Lucy herself; yes, he was disappointed.Cecil, who naturally preferred congratulations to apologies, drew down the corner of his mouth. Was this the reaction his action would get from the whole world? Of course, he despised the world as a whole; every thoughtful man should; it is almost a test of refinement."I'm sorry I have given you a shock," he said dryly. "I fear that Lucy's choice does not meet with your approval."10. Cecil's remark in line 1 ("Lucy . . . faults") is made in a tone of(A) great conviction(B) studied neutrality(C) playful irony(D) genuine surprise(E) weary cynicism11. Mr. Beebe asks the question in lines 6-7 ("Does . . . quietly") primarily in order to(A) raise an urgent concern(B) anticipate a possible objection(C) challenge a widely accepted theory(D) note an apparent inconsistency(E) criticize a popular pastime12. Mr. Beebe's statement, "The water-tight . . . bad" (lines 9-11), suggests that Lucy will(A) ultimately become a famous and respected musician(B) eventually play music in a less disciplined fashion(C) one day begin to live with great passion(D) soon regret an impetuous decision(E) someday marry a man who will be the cause of her undoing13. In line 24, "sense" most nearly means(A) definition(B) intelligence(C) plausibility(D) consensus(E) impression14. For Mr. Beebe, "Picture number two" (line 27) represents(A) a misleading occurrence(B) a dangerous gamble(C) an unlikely development(D) an anticipated outcome(E) an avoidable difficulty15. Ultimately, Cecil views his remark in line 34 ("It . . . now") as(A) singularly poetic(B) particularly memorable(C) embarrassingly inapt(D) excessively critical(E) regrettably underhanded16. The question in lines 39-40 ("had . . . him ") suggests that Cecil fears that Mr. Beebe will(A) detect the lack of originality in his thinking(B) consider him to be vain(C) tell Lucy of his inappropriate remark(D) distrust him as a confidant(E) attempt to block his engagement to LucyQuestions 17-24 are based on the following passage.The following passage is adapted from a book published in 1999.Calling it a cover-up would be far too dramatic. But for more than half a century—even in the midst of some of the greatest scientific achievements in history—physicists have been quietly aware of a dark cloud looming on a distant horizon. The problem is this: There are two foundational pillars upon which modern physics rests. One is general relativity, which provides a theoretical framework for understanding the universe on the largest of scales: stars, galaxies, clusters of galaxies, and beyond10 to the immense expanse of the universe itself. The other is quantum mechanics, which providesa theoretical framework for understanding the universe on the smallest of scales: molecules, atoms, and all the way down to subatomic particles like electrons and quarks. Through15 years of research, physicists have experimentally confirmed to almost unimaginable accuracy virtually all predictions made by each of these theories. But these same theoretical tools inexorably lead to another disturbing conclusion: As they are currently formulated, general relativity and20 quantum mechanics cannot both be right. The two theories underlying the tremendous progress of physics during the last hundred years—progress that has explained the expansion of the heavens and the fundamental structure of matter—are mutually incompatible.25 If you have not heard previously about this ferocious antagonism, you may be wondering why. The answer is not hard to come by. In all but the most extreme situations, physicists study things that are either small and light (like atoms and their constituents) or things that are huge and30 heavy (like stars and galaxies), but not both. This means that they need use only quantum mechanics or only general relativity and can, with a furtive glance, shrug off the bark¬ing admonition of the other. For 50 years this approach has not been quite as blissful as ignorance, but it has been35 pretty close.But the universe can be extreme. In the central depths of a black hole, an enormous mass is crushed to a minuscule size. According to the big bang theory, the whole of the universe erupted from a microscopic nugget whose size40 makes a grain of sand look colossal. These are realms that are tiny and yet incredibly massive, therefore requiring that both quantum mechanics and general relativity simultaneously be brought to bear. The equations of general relativity and quantum mechanics, when combined, begin45 to shake, rattle, and gush with steam like a decrepit automobile. Put less figuratively, well-posed physical questions elicit nonsensical answers from the unhappy amalgam ofthese two theories. Even if you are willing to keep the deep interior of a black hole and the beginning of the50 universe shrouded in mystery, you can't help feeling that the hostility between quantum mechanics and general relativity cries out for a deeper level of understanding. Can it really be that the universe at its most fundamental level is divided, requiring one set of laws when things are55 large and a different, incompatible set when things are small?Superstring theory, a young upstart compared with the venerable edifices of quantum mechanics and general relativity, answers with a resounding no. Intense research60 over the past decade by physicists and mathematicians around the world has revealed that this new approach to describing matter at its most fundamental level resolves the tension between general relativity and quantum mechanics. In fact, superstring theory shows more:65 within this new framework, general relativity and quantum mechanics require one another for the theory to make sense. According to superstring theory, the marriage of the laws of the large and the small is not only happy but inevitable. Superstring theory has the70 potential to show that all of the wondrous happenings in the universe—from the frantic dance of subatomic quarks to the stately waltz of orbiting binary stars—are reflections of one grand physical principle, one master equation.17. The "dark cloud" mentioned in line 4 refers to an(A) atypical diagnosis(B) unsupported hypothesis(C) unknown threat(D) evil influence(E) important contradiction18. Which pairing best represents the different models of the universe presented in lines 7-14 ?(A) Big and little(B) Old and new(C) Complex and simple(D) V erified and undocumented(E) Theoretical and practical19.

Which of the following, if available, would best refute the author's assertion about the "young upstart" (line 57) ?(A) Evidence that certain kinds of particles in nature exceed the speed of light(B) Confirmation of conditions that existed in the earliest stages of the big bang(C) Speculation that the deep interior of a black hole is not as dense as scientists have believed(D) Mathematical formulas that link general relativity and quantum mechanics in the same realm24. The author uses dance imagery in lines 71-72 in order to(A) suggest a similarity between the study of science and the study of dance(B) highlight the extremes found in the physical world(C) emphasize the different ways that binary stars(D) illustrate the intricacy of the subatomic world of quarks(E) suggest the cohesive nature of both science and22.

Those who hold the “conclusion” referred to in line 18 would most likely believe that the “marriage” (line 68) was an(A) inevitable result of their research(B) unjustifiable elevation of their hypotheses(C) inadvisable use of research funds(D) unfortunate consequence(E) impossible outcome24.

The World Health Organization expressed the same view in its 2002 World Health Report, emphasizing that the damage produced by lack of physical activity was equal to the strong probability of serious illness such as heart disease and even some kinds of cancer.Those who have embraced an active lifestyle for years are familiar with the sort of physical and psychological benefits that come from exercise. Nevertheless, a lot of people would never think of physical activity as a way of feeling better, simply because they don't think they are in need of it, or because they are lazy or maintain that they haven't got enough time.There are many positive effects that result from physical exercise and they are not only concerned with the physical aspects but also psychological and social ones.Beginning with the physical benefits, physical activity improves the life of the heart, burns off fat, lowers high blood pressure, makes tissues more resistant, and increases muscle flexibility and joint mobility.On a psychological level, physical activity helps reduce anxiety and stress by causing tension to disappear and by encouraging us to have a better sense of ourselves through listening to our bodies during movement.Lastly, seeing ourselves in better health is advantageous socially. The sense of satisfaction thus obtained will result in an increase of self-respect and self-confidence in terms of our ability to interact with others.The benefits linked to exercise have also not gone unnoticed in the business world, with more and more companies setting up gyms on-site. Employees' improved health translates into better performance and reduced costs as well as an increase in people's satisfaction in the work place.Physical activity is recommended for all age groups, including children. It is an important growth factor in a child's education.And for the elderly? There is no doubt that regular physical activity allows greater efficiency in daily life as well as creating more basic independence day by day, including the possibility of keeping in touch with others and not feeling isolated.31. The writer regards physical exercise as a strong medicine because_________A. the WHO holds the viewB. it helps improve the quality of lifeC. the lack of it equals serious illnessD. it enables people to live longer32. Many people do not engage in physical exercise mainly because_________A. they are not aware of its benefitsB. they don't have the facilitiesC. they don't think they need itD. they are physically unfit for it33. According to the passage, physical exercise can make people________A. stronger and more intelligentB. more intelligent and more open-mindedC. more open-minded and healthierD. healthier and stronger34. Physical exercise is socially beneficial because________A. it gives people competitive advantageB. it helps people reduce anxietyC. it enables employees to work better for their companyD. it makes people confident in dealing with others35. According to the passage, regular physical exercise can make oldpeople_______A. better able to look after themselvesB. look younger than they really areC. less likely to suffer from diseasesD. more aggressive in their interaction with othersPassage TwoAccording to the United States government, people are classified as homeless if they have no place to stay and no expectation of finding a place for the next thirty days. Although technically accurate, that is an impersonal assessment of an enormous and very human problem.The homeless population represents all of us Americans. It includes men and women, the elderly, children, and infants. Its members are from all ethnic (种族的) groups. What they have in common is poverty.Currently in the U. S. , thirty-nine million people live in poverty. When money is really tight, paying the rent or buying food often becomes a choice. Government assistance in the form of food stamps does help but, as one homeless man explains, you can't pay the rent with food stamps.With no money for rent, the streets and homeless shelters become the alternative.Although men constitute the largest group within the homeless population, homeless women with children are rapidly joining them. In fact, one quarter of the homeless people in the U. S. are teenagers and young children.People may become homeless for numerous reasons. However, there are certain factors that many of these individuals have in common. They include a lack of adequate education and job skills. A majority of the teenagers and adults have not completed high school.The abuse of alcohol and drugs is also a common factor. One third of the adult homeless population abuses alcohol, while one quarter of the same group uses drugs.Some members of this population suffer mental health problems. Within the past several years many institutions for the mentally iii have been closed and their patients sent "home". Unfortunately, a number of those people have no home to go to and they are unable to adequately look after themselves.Job loss in today's economy has also become a real factor in the loss of people's homes. The breakup of families through abandonment and divorce are also contributing factors, particularly when there are children involved. The parent who is left to care for the kids with inadequate income may be forced to depend on the homeless shelters to put a roof over their heads.36. The writer thinks that the U.S. government's definition of the homeless reveals __________A. an insincere attitude toward the homelessB. an unbearable attitude toward the homelessC. an uncivilized attitude toward the homelessD. an unsympathetic attitude toward the homeless37. The U.S. government helps the homeless by__________A. giving them homeless allowancesB. giving them food stampsC. finding jobs for themD. finding residences for them38. Most of the homeless in the U.S. are___________A. male adultsB. female adultsC. the elderlyD. children39. People become homeless for all the following reasons EXCEPT________A. the lack of adequate educationB. the abuse of alcohol and drugsC. the closure of institutions for the mentally iiiD. the poor performance of economy40. The breakup of families is likely to lead to homelessness because a parent with kids may______A. lose his or her job in today's economyB. be unable to look after the kidsC. not have enough incomeD. find residence at a homeless shelterPassage ThreeIn early 2004 eight tiny sensors were dropped from a plane near a military base in California. After hitting the ground, the sensors--also known as smart dust sensors--organized themselves into a network and quickly detected a fleet of military vehicles on the ground. They determined the direction, speed and size of a series of military vehicles traveling along the road and later transmitted the data to a computer at a nearby base camp.Smart dust sensors are minicomputers--as small as a grain of rice in some cases--that can monitor and evaluate their physical environment and can relay the information via wireless communication. They can monitor elements such as temperature, moisture, humidity, pressure, energy use, vibration, light, motion, radiation, gas, and chemicals. These devices will soon have many applications, such as use in emergency rescue.Software has been developed to run these minicomputers. A key feature of the software is the ability of the sensors to automatically organize themselves into a communications network and talk to each other via wireless radio signals. If any one connection is interrupted, the sensors will self-correct and pass the information on to the next available sensor.Each sensor has a chip that does the computing work--recording things like temperature and motion at its location. Each sensor also has a tiny radio transmitter that allows it to talk to other sensors within 100 feet or so. With a single network of 10,000 sensors--thought to be the biggest array(阵列) of sensors currently possible-- you could cover 9 square miles and get information about each point along the way. The data finally works its way to a base station that can send the information to a computer or to a wireless network.The scientists who are working with this technology say smart dust sensors can be used to detect the location or movement of enemy troops in areas too dangerous or remote for soldiers to operate. Scattering hundreds of self-networking sensors from a manned or unmanned plane onto the battlefield, in theory, could produce critical information and lead to strategic advantage. Sensors could also be used to detect the presence of chemical weapons and could give troops the time needed to put on protective gear.41. Smart dust sensors can do all the following EXCEPT__________A. giving troops their protective gearB. organizing themselves into a computer networkC. detecting the movement of military vehicles nearbyD. operating in remote and dangerous war zones42. By "physical environment" (Line 2, Paragraph 2), the writer means such elements as______A. the position of military troopsB. the presence of minicomputersC. the strength of radio signalsD. the amount of water vapor in the air43. If connection between two sensors is blocked, the network will automatically_______A. replace the sensor involvedB. repair the sensor involvedC. ignore the sensor involvedD. destroy the sensor involved44. To cover an area of 3 square miles and get information about each point along the way, how many smart dust sensors are needed?A. About 3,000 sensors.B. About 3,300 sensors.C. About 5,000 sensors.D. About 6,600 sensors.45. The passage implies that the smart dust sensors are most likely to be usedin________A. emergency rescueB. monitoring pollutionC. military operationsD. evaluating the environmentPassage FourEach semester, Andrew Tom receives a term bill outlining his expenses: tuition, dorm fee, student center fee, recreation fee, resident activity fee, health insurance. If only the rest of his expenses were as easy to quantify."It's like you start out the semester with plenty of money and then $20 for dinner out here and $ 100 at the department store there, it's gone," said Tom, a Northeastern University third-year student. "And there are so many things you need like toothpaste or laundry detergent (洗洁剂)that you don't think about until you get here and need it."From the books lining their shelves to the fashionable clothes filling their closets, college students say the expenses of a college education go well beyond tuition and a dining hall meal plan. Many say they arrive on campus only to be overwhelmed by unexpected costs from sports fees to the actual price of a slice of pizza.Balancing a job with schoolwork, especially at colleges known for their heavy workloads like Harvard and MIT, can be tough. So can the pressure students often feel to financially keep pace with their friends."When you get dragged along shopping, you're going to spend money; if you get dragged to a party and everyone wants to take a cab but you're cheap and want to take a bus, chances are you'll end up sharing the fee for the cab," said Tom. "I guess you could say no, but no one wants to be the only one eating in the snack bar while your friends are out to dinner."Max Cohen, a biology major at MIT, said he is accustomed to watching fellow students spend $40 a night to have dinner delivered or $50 during a night out at a bar.During the school's recent spring break, friends on trips for the week posted away messages that read like a world map--Paris, Rome, Tokyo. "Meanwhile I stay home and work," said Cohen. "I didn't realize when I came here how much money I would spend or how hard I would have to work to get by."It is a lesson some younger students learn quickly. Others, surrounded by credit card offers, go into debt, or worse, are forced to leave school."A lot of people don't think twice about how much they spend," said a first-year student at MIT, "and you feel the pressure sometimes to go along with them."46. The sentence "If only the rest of his expenses were as easy to quantify"( Lines 2-3, Paragraph 1 ) implies that_________A. there are many other unexpected expensesB. it is easy to calculate how much more to spendC. the tuition is too high to be calculatedD. he has to pay only a few other expenses47. All the following expenses are included in the term bill EXCEPT_______A. health insuranceB. sports feesC. recreation feesD. dorm fees48. According to the passage, many college students_______A. have to work hard in their studiesB. suspend their studies in order to workC. depend on their families for all the expensesD. are under great financial pressure49. The wo rd "cheap" (Line 2, Paragraph 5) is closest in meaning to“_________”A. inferior in qualityB. inexpensiveC. unwilling to spendD. valueless50. From the last paragraph, one may learn that an important reason for the high hidden costs for college students is________A. the extremely high prices of daily necessitiesB. the school's overcharging for campus activitiesC. the too many expenses the students have to payD. the pressure of keeping pace with their peersPart IV Cloze Test (15 minutes,10 points)Ireland is the best place in the world to live for 2005, 51 a life quality ranking that appeared in Britain's Economist magazine last week.The ambitious 52 to compare happiness levels around the world is based on the principle that wealth is not the only 53 of human satisfaction and well-being. The index of 111 countries uses 54 on incomes, health, unemployment, climate, political stability, job security, equality between men and women as well as what the magazine calls "freedom, family and community life".Despite the bad weather, troubled health service, traffic problems, and the high cost of living, Ireland scored an impressive 8.33 points 55 10. That put it well ahead of second-place Switzerland, which managed 8.07. Zimbabwe (津巴布韦) , troubled by political insecurity and hunger, is rated the lowest,56 only 3.89 points."Although rising incomes and increased individual choices in developed countries are 57 valued," the report said, "some of the factors associated with 58 such as the breakdown in traditional institutions and family values in part take away from a positive impact."Ireland wins because it successfully combines the most desirable elements of the new--the fourth highest gross domestic product per head in the world in 2005, low unemployment, political 59 with the preservation of certain warm elements of the old, such as 60 family and community life."51.

一道80%中国考生都做错了的SAT数学题往往在SAT考试中，数学部分对于中国学生来说可谓是信心十足的强项部分，然而，这道数学题2005年10月SAT考试第五个section 里面的第20题，正确率竟然不到18%!大家来回顾下往年的考题吧！原题如下：If j, k, and n areconsecutive integers such that 0 < j < k < n and the units(ones) digit of the product jn is 9,what is the units digit ofk? (RT0510_S05_Q20-M)(A) 0(B) 1(C) 2(D) 3(E) 4针对此题，SAT考试专家郑峻华给予了详细讲解：我想有相当多的学生可能首先是没有读懂这道题，units digit指的是我们说的“位”，ones的意思是“个位”。

这道题还原成中文意思是：如果j，k和n是三个连续整数且满足0 < j < k < n这一条件，同时j与n相乘所得的积个位数是9，请问k这个数字的个位数是多少?答案是从0-4这五个连续数字中进行选择。

译成中文后，我们会发现这是一个需要灵活思维的题目。

两个正整数相乘所得的积个位数是9，那么这两个数字(j和n)的个位数只有可能两种组合可能，分别是3和3，1和9。

由于j，k，n，三个数字是连续整数，j和n当中有一个k，那么只有可能k是以0为个位数的数字。

比如j=9，k=10，n=11，就满足了题目中所提到的条件。

显然答案是A。

专家说，在SAT考试中对于美国学生比较难的数学问题对于中国学生来说是通常是比较容易的，毫无疑问是中国学生的优势所在。

但在日常教学中发现中国学生在SAT数学题上通常遇到两大障碍。

障碍一：由于对英语数学词汇和表达不熟悉，造成题目理解的困难或错误。

比如2013年一套SAT数学部分题目，不少同学感到有些困惑。

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.(A)Are your table manners much better when you are eating at a friend‘s home or in a restaurant than they are at your own home? Probably so, 45 you are aware that people judge you by your table manners. You take special pains when you are eating 46 . Have you ever stopped to realize how much less self-conscious you would be on such occasions if 47 table manners had become a habit for you? You can make them a habit by 48 good table manners at home.Good manners at mealtimes help you and those around you to feel 49 . This is true at home as much as it is true in someone else‘s home or in a restaurant. Good50 make meals more enjoyable for everyone at the table.By this time you probably know quite well what good table manners are. You 51 that keeping your arms on the table, talking with your 52 full, and wolfing down your food are not considered good manners. You kno w also that if you are mannerly, you say ―Please‖ and ―Thank you‖ and ask for things to be passed to you.Have you ever thought of a pleasant attitude being 53 to good table manners?

A. time B. place C. chance D. way(B)There is a tendency to think of each of the arts as a separate area of activity. Many artists, 55 , would prove that there has always been a warm relationship between the various areas of human activity. 56 , in the late nineteenth century the connections between music and painting were particularly 57 . Artists were invited to design clothes and settings for operas and ballets, but sometimes it was the musicians who were inspired (给......以灵感) by the work of contemporary painters. Of the musical compositions that were considered as 58 to the visual arts, perhaps the most famous is Mussorgsky‘s Pictures at an Exhibition.Mussorgsky composed the piece in l874 after the death, at the age of 39, of the artist Victor Hartmann. 59 their friendship had not been a particularly long-lasting one, Mussorgsky was shocked by Hartmann‘s60 death. The following year the critic, Vladimir Stasov, who decided to hold an exhibition of Hartmann‘s w ork, suggested that Mussorgsky try to 61 his grief by writing something in memory of Hartmann.The exhibition served as Mussorgsky‘s inspiration. The ten pieces that make up Pictures at an Exhibition are intended as 62 rather than representations of the paintings in the exhibition. Between each is a promenade (舞曲中的行进), 63 the composer walks from one painting to another. The music is sometimes witty and playful, sometimes almost alarming and frightening. Through a range of surprising 64 , Mussorgsky manages to convey the spirit of the artist and his work.55. A. therefore B. however C. moreover D. otherwise56. A. For example B. On the contrary C. In general D. On the other hand57. A. separate B. unknown C. close D. relevant58. A. links B. additions C. responses D. keys59. A. Before B. Though C. As D. If60.

A. but B. for C. once D. as64. A. paintings B. topics C. contrasts D. visionsIV. Reading ComprehensionDirections: Read the following four passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)You either have it or you don‘t — a sense of direction, that is. But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street?Scientists say we‘re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. Onetheory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don‘t use it, we lose it.“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,‖ says Jim Martland, Resear ch Director of the project. ―However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.‖Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people shou1d be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions:•If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing.•If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree.Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route.•Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.Now you need never get lost again!65. Scientists believe that ____.A. some babies are born with a sense of directionB. people learn a sense of direction as they grow olderC. people never lose their sense of directionD. everybody possesses a sense of direction from birth66. What is true of seven-year-old children according to the passage?A. They never have a sense of direction without maps.B. They should never be allowed out alone if they lack a sense of direction.C. They have a sense of direction and can find their way around.D. They can develop a good sense of direction if they are driven around in a car.67. If you leave your bike in a strange place, you should ____.A. tie it to a tree so as to prevent it from being stolenB. draw a map of the route to help remember where it isC. avoid taking the same route when you come back to itD. remember something easily recognizable on the route68. According to the passage, the best way to find your way around is to____.A. ask policemen for directionsB. use walls, stream, and streets to guide yourselfC. remember your route by looking out for steps and stairsD. count the number of landmarks that you see(B)“Come in, Kim. Have a seat, please,‖ said Bill Williams, the manager. This was Kim‘s first experience with an assessment. After only six months he was due for a raise if this assessment was satisfactory.“Kim,‖ began Bill Williams, ―I am very pleased with the qual ity of your work. I have nothing but praise for your devotion and your hard work. My only concern is that you are not active enough in putting forward your suggestions.‖“But,‖ replied Kim, ―I have always completed every assignment you have given me, Mr. Williams.‖“I know that, Kim. And please, call me Bill. But what I expect is for you to think independently and introduce new ideas. I need more input from you —more feedback on how things are going. I don‘t need a ‗yes man‘. You never tell me what you think. You just smile as though everything is fine.‖“But,‖ said Kim, ―I feel that since you are my superior, it would be presumptuous of me to tell you what todo.‖“I‘m not asking you to tell me what to do, but what you think we could do. To make suggestion s. I employed you because I respect your experience in this field, but you are not communicating your thoughts to me.‖“Yes, I see. I‘m not accustomed to this, but I will try to do as you say... Bill.‖“Good, then. I expect to hear more from you at staff meetings or at any other time you want to discuss an idea with me.‖“Yes, of course. Thank you, Mr. Will... Bill.‖69. Kim is the sort of employee who ____.A. does not speak out his own ideasB. is not devoted to the jobC. laughs too much over workD. can not finish his work on time70. The word ―presumptuous‖ in the middle of the passage is closest in meaning to ―____‖.A. full of respectB. too confident and rudeC. lacking in experienceD. too shy and quiet7l. From the passage, we can learn that ____.A. Kim has been invited to take charge of the staff meetingsB. the manager appreciates those who just do what he tells them to doC. the manager is pleased with Kim‘s hard work and his suggestionsD. Kim is likely to have a higher salary if he can pass the assessmentAcross the world, 1.1 billion people have no access to clean drinking water. More than 2.6 billion people lack basic sanitation (卫生设备).The combination proves deadly. Each year diseases related to inadequate water and sanitation kill between 2 and 5 million people and cause an estimated 80 percent of all sicknesses in the developing world. Safe drinking water is a precondition for health and the fight against child death rate, inequality between men and women, and poverty.Consider these facts:•The average distance that women in Africa and Asia walk to collect water is 6 kilometers.•Only 58 percent of children in sub-Saharan Africa are drinking safe water, and only 37 percent of children in South Asia have access to even a basic toilet.•Each year in India alone, 73 million working days are lost to waterborne diseases.Here are three ways you can help:l) Write CongressCurrent U.S. foreign aid for drinking water and sanitation budgets only one dollar per year per American citizen. Few members of Congress have ever received a letter from voters about clean drinking water abroad.2) Sponsor a project with a faith-based organizationMany U.S. religious groups already sponsor water and sanitation projects, working with partner organizations abroad. Simply put, a single project by a U.S. organization can make safe water a reality for thousands of people.3) Support nonprofit water organizationsNumerous U.S.-based nonprofits work skillfully abroad in community-led projects related to drinking waterand sanitation. Like the sample of non-profits noted as follows, some organizations are large, others small-scale; some operate worldwide, others are devoted to certain areas in Africa, Asia, or Latin America. Support them generously.72. The three facts presented in the passage are used to illustrate that ____.A. poverty can result in water-borne diseasesB. People have no access to clean drinking waterC. women‘s right s are denied in some developing countriesD. safe drinking water should be a primary concern73. The intended readers of the passage are____.A. AmericansB. overseas sponsorsC. CongressmenD. U.S.-based water organizations74. The main purpose of the passage is to call on people to ____.A. get rid of water-related diseases in developing countriesB. donate money to people short of water through religious groupsC. fight against the worldwide water shortage and sanitation problemD. take joint action in support of some nonprofit water organizations75. What information will probably be provided following the last paragraph?A. A variety of companies and their worldwide operation.B. A list of nonprofit water organizations to make contact with.C. Some ways to get financial aids from U.S. Congress.D. A few water resources exploited by some world-famous organizations.(D)Equipped only with a pair of binoculars (双筒望远镜)and ready to spend long hours waiting in all weathers for a precious glance of a rare bullfinch (红腹灰雀), Britain’s birdwatchers had long been supposed to be lovers of a minority sport. But new figures show birdwatching is fast becoming a popular pastime, with almost three million of us absorbed in our fluttering feathered friends.Devoted birdwatchers, those prepared to travel thousands of miles for a sighting of a rare Siberian bird, are fast being joined by a new breed of follower whose interest is satiated by watching a few finches (雀科鸣鸟) on a Sunday walk or putting up a bird-box in the back garden.“Almost three million UK birdwatchers is certainly possible if you include everyone with on1y a casual interest,‖ Stephen Moss said in his newly published book -- A Bird in the Bush: a Social History of Bird watching -- which records the pursui t from the rich Victorian Englishman‘s love of shooting rare birds to the less offensive observational tendencies of birdwatchers today.Television wildlife programmes have helped to fuel the new trend. Last summer, BBC 2‘s Britain Goes Wild was a surprise success. It pulled in three million viewers and led to bird-houses selling out across the UK as 45,000 people promised to put up a box.Birdwatchers‘ networking system first came to the attention of the nation in l989, when a birdwatcher caught sight of the first Vermivora chrysoptera — a golden-winged songbird from North America — to be seen in Britain. He put a message out on the network service Birdline, and the next day 3,000 birdwatchers proved the full pull of a truly rare bird as they visited the Tesco car park in Kent, where it had settled. Today, birdwatchers can log on to or have news of the latest sightings texted to their phones.“Multimillion-pound spending on binoculars, bird food and boxes point to the increasing numbers of birdwatchers,‖ said David Cromack, the editor of Bird Watching magazine. ―The number of people involved is so big that they have great potential to influence government decisions affecting the environment.‖76. The word ―satiated‖ in paragraph 2 can best be replaced by ―____‖.A. affectedB. sharedC. satisfiedD. narrowed77. What happened after the message of seeing a Vermivora chrysoptera was put on the network?A. Birdwatchers helped the rare bird settle in Kent.B. Large numbers of birdwatchers went to view the bird.C.
