A

I was 9 years old when I found out my father was ill. It was 1994, but I can remember my mother’s words as if it were yesterday: “Kerrel, I don’t want you to take food from your father, because he has AIDS. Be very careful when you are around him.”

AIDS wasn’t something we talked about in my country when I was growing up. From then on, I knew that this would be a family secret. My parents were not together anymore, and my dad lived alone. For a while, he could take care of himself. But when I was 12, his condition worsened. My father’s other children lived far away, so it fell to me to look after him.

We couldn’t afford all the necessary medication for him, and because Dad was unable to work, I had no money for school supplies and often couldn’t even buy food for dinner. I would sit in class feeling completely lost, the teacher’s words muffled as I tried to figure out how I was going to manage.

I did not share my burden(负担) with anyone. I had seen how people reacted to AIDS. Kids laughed at classmates who had parents with the disease. And even adults could be cruel. When my father was moved to the hospital, the nurses would leave his food on the beside table even though he was too weak to feed himself.

I had known that he was going to die, but after so many years of keeping his condition a secret, I was completely unprepared when he reached his final days. Sad and hopeless, I called a woman at the nonprofit National AIDS Support. That day, she kept me on the phone about AIDS for hours. I was so lucky to find someone who cared. She saved my life.

I was 15 when my father died. He took his secret away with him, having never spoken about AIDS to anyone, even me. He didn’t want to call attention to AIDS. I do.

56) What does Kerrel tell us about her father?

A) He had stayed in the hospital since he fell ill.

B) He depended on the nurses in his final days.

C) He worked hard to pay for his medication.

D) He told no one about his disease.

57) What can we learn from the underlined sentence?

A) Kerrel couldn’t understand her teacher.

B) Kerrel had special difficulty in hearing.

C) Kerrel was too troubled to focus on the lesson.

D) Kerrel was too tired to hear her teacher’s words.

58) Why did Kerrel keep her father’s disease a secret?

A) She was afraid of being looked down upon.

B) She thought it was shameful to have AIDS.

C) She found no one was willing to listen to her.

D) She wanted to obey her mother.

59) Why did Kerrel write the passage?

A) To tell people about the sufferings of her father.

B) To show how little people knew about AIDS.

C) To draw people’s attention to AIDS.

D) To remember her father

B

Handshakes are popular in China. However, wait for your Chinese partner to start the gesture. The Chinese will sometimes nod as the starting greeting. A visit to a school, a theater, or other workplaces is likely to be greeted with applause(鼓掌) as a sign of welcome. In turn , you should respond by applauding back.

You should avoid making expansive gestures and using unusual facial expressions. The Chinese don’t often use their hands when speaking, will only become annoyed with a speaker who does this way, so try not talk with your hands. However, some hand gestures are still necessary. For example, to draw attention, you can turn your palm down, waving your fingers towards yourself and use your whole hand rather than your index finger to point.

Don’t touch your Chinese colleague, do not even pat him on the shoulder. The Chinese, especially those who are older and in higher social positions, dislike being touched by strangers.

Acknowledge the most senor person in a group first. Try as well to avoid looking straight into the eyes of your Chinese colleague: this is particularly rude during a meeting and may hurt your Chinese colleague’s feelings.

In China, smiling is not noticeable, either, since there is a heavy emphasis on pressing(压抑) feelings and attitude. Members of the same sex may hold hands in public in order to show friendliness. Public displays of affection between the sexes are hardly acceptable. Don’t put your hands in your mouth, as it is considered impolite. Consequently, when in public, avoid biting your nails, removing food from your teeth, and similar practices.

Pushing and cutting ahead is common in line-ups among the Chinese, but they don’t appreciate being cut in front of themselves. Spitting(吐痰) in public is not acceptable. It will be heavily fined now. Blowing your nose with a handkerchief is also acceptable, but it is advisable to turn away from people while doing so.

60) According to the writer, people in China should keep__________ when communicating with others.

A) open-minded B) cautious C) warm-hearted D) quiet

61) This passage could be read most possibly_______________.

A) in a newspaper B) in a tour-guide book C) in a yellow-page book D) in a history book

62) The best title for this passage could be_______________.

A) Traditional Chinese Culture B) Chinese Gestures and Body Languages

C) Public Behaviors in China D) Dos and Don’ts in china

63) Reading this passage, we may feel that the writer’s remarks seem to be____________.

A) calm B)hard C) modest D)stubborn

C

A study published in September suggests there is a surprising way to get people to avoid unhealthy foods: change their memories. Scientist Elizabeth Loftus of the University of California at Irvine asked volunteers to answer some questions on their personalities(个性) and food experiences. “ One week later,” Loftus says, “We told those people we’d fed their answers into our computer and it came up with an account of their early childhood experiences.” Some accounts included one key additional detail: “ You got sick after eating strawberry ice-cream.” The researchers then changed this detail into a manufactured(人为促生的) memory through leading questions--- Who were you with? How did you feel? By the end of the study, up to 40％ those given memory believed strawberry ice-cream once made them sick, and many said they’d avoid eating it.

When Loftus published her findings, she started getting calls from people begging her to make them remember hating chocolate or French fries. Unfortunately, it’s that easy. False memories appear to work only for foods you don’t eat on a regular basis. But most important, it is likely that false memories can be implanted(灌输)only in people who are unaware of the mental control. And lying to a patient is immoral(邪恶的), even if a doctor believes it’s for the patient’s benefit.

Loftus says there’s nothing to stop parents from trying it with their overweight children. “ I say, wake up—parents have been lying about Father Christmas for years, and nobody seems to mind. If they can prevent diseases caused by fatness and all the other problems that come with that, you might think that’s a more moral lie. Decide that for yourself.”

64) Why did Loftus ask the volunteers to answer some questions?

A) To improve her computer program.

B) To find out their attitudes towards food

C) To find out details she can make use of

D) To predict what food they’ll like in the future

65) What did Loftus find out from her research?

A) People believe what the computer tells them.

B) People can be led to believe in something false.

C) People tend to forget their childhood experiences.

D) People are not always aware of their personalities.

66) According to the study, people may stop having a certain food if they____________.

A) learn it is good for health.

B) lie to themselves that they don’t want it.

C) are willing to let doctor control their minds.

D) think they once had a bad experience of eating it.

67) What is the biggest concern with the method?

A) Whether it is moral B) Who it is best for C) When it is effective D) How it should be used.

D

Glynis Davis:

I first piled on the pounds when I was in the family way and I couldn’t lose them afterwards. Then I joined a slimming club. My target was 140 pounds and I lost 30pounds in six months. I felt great and people kept saying how good I looked. But Christmas came and I started to slip back into my old eating habits. I told myself I’d lose the weight at slimming classes in the new year …but it didn’t happen. Instead of losing the pounds, I put them on. I’d lost willpower(意志力)and tried to believe that the fish and chips didn’t make any difference but the scales don’t lie.

Roz Juma:

To be honest, I never weigh myself any more. I’ve learnt to be happy with myself. It seemed to me that I would feel sorry about every spoonful of tasty food that passed my lips. My idea is simple. You shouldn’t be too much thinking about food and dieting. Instead, you should get on with life and stop dreaming of a supper-thin body. This is obviously the size I’ve meant to be and, most of all, I’m happy with it.

Lesley Codwin:

I was very happy about winning Young Slimmer of the Year. I’d look in the mirror unable to believe this lady was me! That might have been my problem—perhaps from then on I didn’t pay attention to myself. Winning a national competition makes everything worse, though, because you feel the eyes of the world are fixed upon you. I feel a complete failure because I’ve put on weight again.

Ros Langfod

Before moving in with my husband Gavin, I’d always been about 110 pounds, but the pleasant housework went straight to my waist and I put on 15 pounds in a year. Very often I try to go on a diet …I’m really good for a few days, then end up having the children’s left-overs or eating happily chocolate---my weakness. I’d like to be slim, but right now my duty is the children and home. I might take more exercise when my kids are older.

68) What do you think the four women were all talking about?

A) Their own slimming matter B) Their life after marriage

C) Their work as a housewife D) Different diets they prefer

69) Where are these short passages mostly likely to be taken from?

A) Talks on the radio. B) Advertisements on the wall

C) Books in a library D) Magazines for children

70) What does the underlined word “scales” possibly mean?

A) The coach in the slimming club B) Some tools to measure weight

C) Glnis Davis’ dear husband D) The salesperson in a shop

71) Which of the following best describes each of the four women’s attitudes towards slimming?

1）Glynis 2） Roz Juma 3） Lesley Codwin 4） Ros Langfod

a）I put on weight soon after I got married. b）Fame（名声）doesn’t necessarily mean success.

“Rising seas have forced 100 people on a Pacific island to move to higher ground in what may be the first example of a village formally displaced（搬迁）because of modern global warming，”a U.N. report said on Monday.

With coconut palms on the coast already standing in water, inhabitants(居民)in the Lateu settlement(定居点)on Tegua island in Vanuatu moved about 600 yards(meters) inland.

“They could no longer live on the coast,” Taito Nakalevu, a climate change expert at the Secretariat of the pacific Regional Environment Programme, said during a 189-nation conference in Montreal on ways to fight climate change. So-called “king tides” has become stronger in recent years and made Lateu uninhabitable by flooding the village 4 to 5 times a year. The U.N. Environment Programme(UNEP) said in a statement that the Lateu settlement has become one of ,if not the first, to be formally moved out of harm’s way as a result of climate change.

The scientists said that seas could rise by almost 3 feet(a meter) by 2100 because of melting ice caps and warming linked to a build-up of heat-trapping gases given off by burning fuels in power plants, factories and cars.

Pacific Islanders are among those most at risk. Off Papua New Guinea, about 2000 people on the Cantaret Islands are planning to move to nearly Bougainville island, four hours’ boat ride to the southwest. Two uninhabited Kiribati island, Tebua Tarawa and Abanuea, disappeared underwater in 1999.

72) The purpose of the 189-nation conference in Montreal is to________________.

A) discuss how to settle the people of Lateu

B) discuss how to deal with the global warming

C) offer help to the Pacific Islanders

D) find ways to control the pollution in the world

73) Bougainville island _____________________.

A) is uninhabited

B) has disappeared underwater

C)is higher than the Cantaret islands

D) is four hours’ walk from the Cantaret Islands

74) The inhabitants in the Lateu settlement ___________________.

A) had to move to higher ground in the same island

B) had to move to another higher island

C) are planning to move to nearby Bougainville island

D) were forced to plant many coconut palms

75) Which of the following is the best title?

A) The global warming

B) Two uninhabited islands

C) Pacific Islanders most at risk

D) Pacific Islanders move to escape global warming

Forest Fire in the Northeast

On October 23re , 2006, a fire broke out in a forest in the northeast of our country. It was caused by a few tourists who had had a picnic in the forest. Tens of thousands of firefighters, soldiers and local people fought bravely against the fire until it was completely put out. The fire lasted more than a week , causing a loss of at least 200,000,000 yuan. Two people were killed in the fire and tens of people were injured . The leaders of the central government are much concerned about the fire. The local government is thinking about the lesson they have got from the fire and further measures will be taken to avoid things like this.
