Swedish businessman Nile Bergqvist is delighted with his new hotle, the world’s first igloo hotel. Built in a small town in In two weeks’ time Bergqvist’s ice creation (作品)will be nothing more than a pool of water. “We don’t see ti as a big problem, ” he says. “We just look forward to replacing it.” Bergqvist built his first igloo in 1991 for an art exhibition. It was so successful that he disgned the present one, which measures roughly 200 square meters. Six workmen spent more than eight weeks piling 1,000 tons of snow onto a wooden base; when the snow froze, the base was removed. “The only wooden thing we have left in the igloo is the front door,” he says. After their stay, all visitors receive a survival certificate recording their success. With no windows, nowhere to hang clothes and temperatures below The popularity of the igloo is beyond doubt: it is now attracting tourists from all over the world. At least 800 people have stayed at the igloo this season even though there are only 10 rooms. “You can get a lot of people in, ” explains Bergqvist. “The beds are three meters wide by two meters long, and can fit at least four at one time.” 59.

Which of the four pictures below is the closest to the igloo hotle as described in the text? C Many cities around the world today are heavily polluted. Careless methods of production and lack of consumer demand for environment friendly products have contributed to the pollution problem. One result is that millions of tons of glass, paper, plastic, and metal containers are produced, and these are difficult to get rid of. However, today, more and more consumers are choosing “green” and demanding that the products they buy should be safe for the environment. Before they buy a product, they ask questions like these: “Will this shampoo damage the environment?” “Can this metal container be resued or can it only be used once?” A recent study showed that two out of five adults now consider the environmental safety of a product before they buy it. This means that companies must now change the way they make and sell their products to make sure that they are “green”, that is, friendly to the environment. Only a few years ago, it was impossible to find green products in supermarkets, but now there are hundreds. Some supermarket products carry labels (标签) to show that the product is green. Some companies have made the manufacturing (生产) of clean and safe products their main selling point and emphasize it in their advertising. The concern for a safer and cleaner environment is making companies rethink how they do business. No longer will the public accept the old attitude of “Buy it, use it, throw it away, and forget it.” The public pressure is on, and gradually business is cleaning up its act. 64. It becomes clear from the text that the driving force (动力) behind green products is________. A. public caring for environment B. companies’ desire for bigger sales C. new ways of doing business D. rapid growth of supermarkets 65. What would be the best title for the text? A. Business and People B. Business Goes Green C. Shopping Habits Are Changing D. Supermarkets and Green Products 66. The underlined word “it” in the fourth paragraph refers to________. A. a selling point B. the company name C. a great demand for health D. the manufacturing of green products D If you ask people to name the one person who had the greatest effect on the English language, you will get answers like “Shakespeare,” “Samuel Johnson, ” and “Webster, ” but none of these men had any effect at all compared to a man who didn’t even speak English---William the Conqueror. Before 1066, in the land we now call But this state of affairs did not last. In 1066 the When Americans visit Europe for the first time, they usually find 67. The two major languages spoken in what is now called Great Britian before 1066 were________. A. Welsh and Scottish B. Nordic and Germanic C. Celtic and Old English D. Anglo-Saxon and Germanic 68. Which of the following groups of words are, by inerence, rooted in French? A. president, lawyer, beef B. president, bread, water C. bread, field, sheep D. folk, field, cow 69. Why does A. Most advertisements in B. They know little of the history of the English language. C. Many French words are similar to English ones. D. They know French better than German. 70. What is the subject discussed in the text? A. The history of C. The rule of D. The French influences on the English language. E It is, everyone agrees, a huge task that the child performs when he learns to speak, and the fact that he does so in so short a period of time challenges explanation. Language learning begins with listening. Individual children vary greatly in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and late starters are often long listeners. Most children will “obey” spoken instructions sometime before they can speak, though the word “obey” is hardly accurate(准确的) as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises. Any attempt to trace(探索)the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves out as particularly indicative of(表示)delight, suffering and so on. But since these cannot be said to show the baby’s intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new sounds to their sound collection. This self-imitation(模拟)leads on to deliberate(深思熟虑的)imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech. 71.By “…challenges explanation” the author means that _________. A. no explanation is necessary for such an obvious phenomenon B. no explanation has been made up to now C. it’s no easy job to provide an adequate explanation D. it’s high time that an explanation was provided 72.The third paragraph is mainly about _________. A. the development of babies’ early forms of language B. the difficulties of babies in learning to speak C. babies’ strong desire to communicate D. babies’ intention to communicate 73.The author’s purpose in writing the second paragraph is to show that children ____. A. usually obey without asking questions B. are passive in the process of learning to speak C. are born cooperative D. learn to speak by listening 74.From the passage we learn that _________. A. early starters can learn to speak within only six months B. children show a strong desire to communicate by making noises C. imitation plays an important role in learning to speak D. children have various difficulties in learning to speak 75.The best title for this passage would be _________. A. How Babies Learn to Speak B. Early Forms of Language C. A Huge Task for Children D.

Dear Tom,
I would like to give my opinion about being on the Internet.
More and more middle school students here are starting using the Internet, through which they can get a great deal of the latest information. They can enjoy lessons given by the best teachers of net-schools at home. And it is easy and convenient to keep in touch with friends by sending and receiving e-mails.
On the other hand, some students have spent too much time chatting and playing games on the net. And there is still something harmful to the students.
At last, I suggest that students should be good at using the Internet for their studies and not be on line for long.
Yours,
Li Hua
