Section
B
Directions: Complete the following passage by
choosing the words in the box．Each word
can only be used once．Note there is one word more than you
need．
|
A the
sun B
source C

D like
E without
F limited G

H

Using the
power of the sun is nothing new．People have had solar-powered
calculators and buildings with solar panels for decades．But plants
are the real experts: they’ve been
using 41
as an energy source for billions of years．
Cells in
the green leaves of plants
work
42 tiny factories to
convert sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into sugars and
starches—stored energy that the plants can use, this conversion
process is called
photosynthesis（光合作用）．Unfortunately,
43 you’re a plant, it’s difficult and
expensive to convert sun light into
44
energy．That’s why scientists are taking a closer look at exactly
how plants do it．
In a
world with increasing energy needs, researchers are always looking
for new ways to power everything from cars to
computers
45 putting more stress on
the environment．That’s another reason why scientists are so
interested in solar power—it doesn’t pollute the air, water, or
land．And since the sun lights and warms the entire planet, the
ability to harness its energy could provide a clean
energy
46 for everyone．
The main
sources of energy that people use today are called fossil fuels,
such as natural gas, oil, and coal．Unfortunately, the supply of
fossil fuel is 47 ．Once
we use all the coal and oil in the Earth, they’re gone for good．The
sun, on the other hand, is a
48
energy source．No matter how we tap it for energy, the sun will be
around –at least for the next few billion years．
There’s
another problem with
49
fossil fuels—pollution．The ideal energy sources
of the future will be “clean”: they won’t produce carbon dioxide
and other gases that pollute the environment as fossil fuels
do．
III．Reading
Comprehension
Section
A
Directions: For each blank in the following
passages there are four words or phrases marked
A, B, C and D．Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that
best fits the context．
An earthquake hit Kashmir on Oct．8, 2005．It took some 75000
lives,
50 130000 and left nearly
3．5 million without food, jobs or homes．
51
overnight, scores of tent villages
bloomed
52 the region, tended by
international aid organizations, military
53
and aid groups working day and night to shelter the survivors
before winter set in．
Mercifully, the season was mild．But with the
54
of spring, the refugees will be moved again．Camps that
55
health care, food and shelter for 150000 survivors have begun to
close as they were
56 intended to be
permanent．
For most of the refugees,
the thought of going back brings
57
emotions．The past six months have been difficult．Families of as
many as 10 people have had to shelter
58
a single tent and share cook stoves and bathing
59
with neighbours．“ They are looking forward to the clean water of
their rivers,” officials say．“They are dreaming of free fresh
fruit．They want to get back to their herds and
start
60
again．” But most will be returning to
61
but heaps of ruins．In many villages, electrical
62
have not been repaired, nor have roads．Aid

Section
B
Directions: Read the following passage．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）
Tui
Na and Your Emotional Health
In Traditional Chinese
Medicine the body, mind and spirit cannot be divided and so the
unique whole-body treatment in Tui Na can also be a
useful treatment correcting any imbalances in the
body's energy before symptoms and disease can
develop．It also works to restore emotional harmony
as well as physical health．This is why after a Tui Na
treatment many people "feel good"．Many people in
China use Tui Na regularly to keep healthy and to deal with
some specific illnesses．
Tui Na is performed
on the clothed body and the patient is either lying on a couch or
sitting on a chair．Therapists using a variety of strokes or
movements will control the intensity and direction of pressure in
an exact way．The unique rolling movement in Tui Na is one of
the most difficult strokes to learn and students have to practice
sometimes for many months on a rice bag before they are allowed to
practice on the human body．
Stress
Tui Na is of course
very useful for treating stress．
It distributes the energy
around the whole body．It is believed that Tui
Na moves the strong energy in the tense muscles to the weaker
areas, thus making a more balanced body．When your Qi （energy
in the body） flow is balanced you feel relaxed and comfortable．
Tui Na is especially useful for stiff shoulders and tense
neck muscles．
Emotions
In Traditional Chinese
Medicine each major organ is linked to an emotion．By balancing the
energy in the organ, the relevant emotion will be calmed．When your
emotions are out of control, you would usually turn to your doctor
or perhaps a psychotherapist．But perhaps some people would not like
to be seeing a psychotherapist or feel nervous about discussing
their problems with others．With Tui Na one does not need to
tell the therapist anything one does not want to．The treatment of
Tui Na can deal with the problem itself — although if one
does need to talk, then the safe space is there to do so．An active
dialogue between the therapist and the patient will help to get a
better effect．
How the
major organs rule your emotions
Each major organ — the
heart, the stomach, the spleen, the liver, the bladder, the
kidneys, the lungs, etc．— is linked to a relevant emotion．
The heart is linked to joy,
excitement and sadness．If the heart is out of balance, the patient
may dream a lot at night and often forget something important in
the day．
The stomach and spleen are connected with too much thinking or
worrying — over anxiety．When the stomach is out of
balance there is often a lack of energy．The patient often feels
very tired and has no interest in doing anything
at all．
The liver and gall bladder
are linked to anger．In Chinese Medicine the eyes are connected with
the liver, and many people who suffer from anger
often suffer from eye problems．The gall bladder rules
decision-making and too much energy here can lead to rashness,
while if there is too little it can bring about indecision．Where
there is a history of depression, the therapist would look to the
liver．
The bladder and kidneys are
linked to fear of all kinds, from simple anxieties and phobias to
vague fears and worries．
The lungs are connected
with feelings of grief and sadness．When there is a history of
grief, the therapist would look to the lungs．
Tui Na is used in
almost all the hospitals in China and very popular among Chinese
people．It is a useful and valuable method of restoring Qi
balance, when emotional and physical health is out of
balance．Tui Na is one of the remaining secrets of Chinese
Medicine．
65．According to the passage, which statement is TRUE about
Tui Na?
A．Tui Na is a whole-body treatment and can't be divided into
different parts．
B．Tui
Na can be used to balance the diseases before they can develop
in the body．
C．Tui Na can bring back not only physical health but also
emotional health．
D．Tui Na only makes people "feel good" but do not actually
cure disease．
66．How can the emotion be calmed?
A．By linking the organ to an emotion．
B．By
telling the therapist anything one does not want to．
C．By discussing their problems with others．
D．By balancing the energy in the relevant organ．
67．When the stomach is out of balance,
．
A．the patient will have a stomachache
B．the patient will have a lot to worry about
C．the patient will have nothing to do
D．the patient will not feel like doing anything
（B）
Black
Boxes
Although they are called
"black boxes", aviation recorders are actually painted orange．This
distinct color, along with the strips of reflective tape attached
to the recorders' exteriors, helps investigators locate the black
boxes following an accident．These are especially helpful
when a plane lands in the water．There are two possible origins
of the term " black boxes" ; Some believe it is because early
recorders were painted black, while others think it refers to the
charring that occurs in post-accident fires．
In addition to the paint
and reflective tape, black boxes are equipped with an underwater
locator beacon （ULB）．If you look at the picture of a black box, you
will almost always see a small, cylindrical object attached to one
end of the device．This cylinder（圆筒） is actually a beacon．
If a plane crashes into the
water, this beacon sends out an ultrasonic pulse that cannot be
heard by human ears but is readily detectable by sonar and
acoustical locating equipment．There is a sensor on the side of the
beacon that looks like a bull's eye．When water touches this sensor,
it activates the beacon．
The beacon sends out pulses
at 37．5 kilohertz （kHz） and can transmit sound as deep as 14,000
feet （4,267 m）．Once the beacon begins "pinging", it pings once per
second for 30 days．This beacon is powered by a battery． In rare
instances, the beacon may get snapped off during a high-impact
collision．
In the United States, when
investigators locate a black box, it is transported to the computer
labs at the National Transportation Safety Board （ NTSB）．Special
care is taken in transporting these devices in order to avoid any
（further） damage to the recording medium．In the lab, investigators
download the data from the recorders and attempt to recreate the
events of the accident．This process can take weeks or months to
complete．In the United States, black-boxes manufacturers supply the
NTSB with the readout systems and software needed to do a full
analysis of the recorders' stored data．
A team of experts is
usually brought in to interpret the recordings stored on a black
box．This group typically includes a representative from the
airline, a representative from the airplane manufacturer, an NTSB
transportation-safety specialist and an NTSB air-safety
investigator．This group may also include a language specialist from
the Federal Bureau of Investigation and, if needed, an
interpreter．This board attempts to interpret 30 minutes of words
and sounds recorded by the black box． This can be a painstaking
process and may take weeks to complete．
The black box is an
invaluable tool for any aircraft investigation．It is often the lone
survivor of airplane accidents, and as such provides important
clues to the cause that would be impossible to obtain any other
way．As technology evolves, black boxes will continue to play a
tremendous role in accident investigations．
68．Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the text?
A．Aviation
recorders are known as the black boxes．
B．Some
people believe that the black box got its name because it was
painted black．
C．Some
people believe that the black box got its name because of its
colour after the accident．
D．It is
only the distinct orange colour that helps investigators locate the
black boxes after an accident．
69．What can activate the underwater locating beacon （ULB）?
A．A bull's
eye． B．Sonar．
C．A sensor on the side of the
beacon． D．Acoustical
locating equipment．
70．How many people are needed at least to interpret the
recordings stored on a black box?
A．Three． B．Four． C．Five．
D．Six．
71．Which word can best describe the process of interpreting
recordings on a black box?
A．Comfortable．
B．Careful． C．Exciting． D．Suffering．
（C）
Another
common type of reasoning is the search for causes and results．We
want to know whether cigarettes really do cause lung cancer, what
causes malnutrition, the decay of cities, or the decay of teeth．We
are equally interested in effects: what is the effect of sulphur
or lead in the atmosphere, of
oil spills and raw sewage in rivers and the sea, of staying up late
on the night before an examination?
Causal
reasoning may go from cause to effect or from effect to
cause．Either way, we reason from what we know to what we want to
find out．Sometimes we reason from an effect to a cause and then on
to another effect．Thus, if we reason that because the lights have
gone out, the refrigerator won't work, we first
relate the effect （lights out） to the cause （power off） and then
relate that cause to another effect （refrigerator not working）．This
kind of reasoning is called, for short, effect to effect．It is
quite common to reason through an extensive chain of causal
relations．When the lights go out we might reason in the following
causal chain: lights out—power off—refrigerator
not working—temperature will rise—milk will sour．In other words, we
diagnose a succession of effects from the power failure, each
becoming the cause of the next．
Causes are classified as necessary, sufficient, or
contributory．A necessary cause is one which must be present for the
effect to occur, as combustion（燃烧） is necessary to drive a gasoline
engine．A sufficient cause is one which can produce an effect
unaided, though there may be more than one sufficient cause; a dead
battery is enough to keep a car from starting, but faulty spark
plugs or an empty gas tank will have the same effect．A contributory
cause is one which helps to produce an effect but cannot do so by
itself, as running through a red light may help cause an accident,
though other factors — pedestrians or other cars at the crossroads
— must also be present．
In
establishing or refuting a causal relation it is usually necessary
to show the process by which the alleged （声称的） cause produces the
effect．Such an explanation is called a causal process．
72．What the author discussed in the previous section is most
probably about_______．
A．relationships between causes and results
B．classification of reasoning
C．some other common types of reasoning
D．some special type of reasoning
73．According to the passage, to do the "effect to effect"
reasoning is to reason_______．
A．from cause to
effect B．from
effect to cause
C．from effect to effect and on to
cause D．from
effect to cause and on to another effect
74．A necessary cause is____________．
A．one without which it is impossible for the effect to occur
B．one of the causes that can produce the effect
C．one that is enough to make the effect occur
D．none of them
75．Your refrigerator is not working and you have found that the
electric power has been cut off． The power failure is
a______________
A．necessary
cause
B．sufficient cause
C．contributory
cause D．none
of them
Section
C
Directions: Read the following text and choose
the most suitable heading from A—F for
each paragraph．There is one extra heading which you do not
need．
|
A.
Short-term schedule
B.
Attend class
C.
A daily schedule
D.
Your materials and time
E.
Long-term schedule
F.
Both long-term and short-term schedules
|
76______
You
should prepare for the semester．Buy your books early and take some
time to explore their format．Gather other needed stationery such as
folders for each class, paper, pens, and a calendar．Time management
is creating and following a schedule．This allows you to organize
your study time within the framework of school, family, work, and
other responsibilities．Scheduling should be both long term and
short term．
77．______
Read your
syllabi for each class．Using a calendar, look ahead and organize
all your course assignments．Note all test dates and large
assignments．Fill in all unusual outside obligations that take up
time．For example, your school holiday calendar is preset, and
dentist appointments are often made months ahead．
78．______
When you
create your weekly calendar, include fixed commitments such as
classes work, appointments, meals, family responsibilities, and
sleeping．Schedule your study and homework around these fixed
commitments．Learning should be a priority, but one should also
allow enough time for sleep, healthy eating habits, and leisure
activities．The university expects a student to spend about two
hours a week in outside study．As often as possible, a student
should schedule study properly．Having regular study time will help
the student develop a “study habit．”
79．______
Write
down all the things you have to do that day and then prioritize
your list．Decide when you will do each item and put your plan in
action, completing the list and crossing off each item as you
go．Take advantage of the “waiting time” we experience each day,
such as at the doctor’s office or waiting for kids．Carry notes and
texts around with you so you might use those minutes．
80．______
Professors ask that the students should come to their classes and
they plan the semester’s work accordingly．They do not repeat
lectures or give “make-up” lessons．Develop a positive relationship
with your professors．Talk to your professor if an absence is
unavoidable．It is your responsibility to take notes or make up for
assignments that you miss．You should attend all your classes,
participate in class discussions, and ask questions．You should be
polite and respectful and pay attention to the discussions and
questions of others．
Section
D
Directions: Read the passage and answer the
questions or complete the statements
First Maggie, then 20, asked Stepmom and Dad if she could store
a few boxes with them in Washington while she looked for another
place to live．Then Maggie said she would like to move in to be with
her boxes until her boyfriend Joe bought an
apartment．Next Maggie asked whether Joe could move in "temporarily"
until the apartment deal was closed．When Lucy and Pablo Sanchez
returned home from vacation last Christmas, they found their small
living room crammed with his boxes and a second welcome mat next to
their own on the front porch（门廊）．Lucy Sanchez says: "I have a
headache．"
Analysts
cite a variety of reasons for this return to the nest．The marriage
age is rising, a condition that makes home and its benefits
particularly attractive to young people, say
experts． A high divorce rate
and a declining remarriage rate are sending
economically pressed and emotionally frustrated survivors back to
parental shelters．For some, the expense of an away-from-home
college education has become so big that many students now attend
local schools．Even after graduation, young people find housing
costs soaring．
Sallie
Knighton, 26, moved back to her parents' suburban
Atlanta home to save enough money to buy a car．Her job as a teacher
provided only enough money to cover car payments
and an additional loan she had taken out．Her mother agrees, "It's
ridiculous for the kids to pay all that money for rent．It makes
sense for kids to stay at home．" Bradley Kulat, 25, makes about
$20,000 a year as an equipment technician in a hospital．That is
enough to support a modest household, but he chooses to live at his
parents' house outside Chicago．He admits to expensive tastes．He
recently bought an $8,000 car and owns an $800 stereo system, a
$300 ten-speed bike and an elegant wardrobe．Says his mother Evelyn:
"It keeps you thinking younger, trying to keep up with them．"
Sharing
the family home requires adjustments for all．There
are quarrels over bathrooms, telephones and privacy．Some families
manage the delicate balancing act．At 34, Esther
Rodriguez dreaded returning to her parents' Denver
home after three years of law school forced her $20,000 into
debt．"I thought it was going to be a restriction on my
independence," she recalls．Instead, she was touched when her father
installed a desk and phone in the basement so she would have a
private study．But for others, the setup proves too
difficult．Michelle Del Turco, 24, of Englewood, Colo．, a Denver
suburb, has been home three times—and left three times．"What I
considered a social drink, my dad considered an alcohol problem,"
she explains．"He never liked anyone I dated, so I either had to
sneak around or meet them at friends' houses．"
（Write your answer with no more than FIFTEEN words．）
81．What does “a second welcome mat next to their own on the
front
porch”
（Paragraph 1）mean to Lucy?
82．Today, more and more people choose to return to the nest
for_______and_________reasons．
83．The underlined expression “to admit to expensive tastes”
means
84．Why did Michelle Del Turco have to sneak around or meet his
date at friends' houses？
