Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a women . A man goes shopping 36 he needs something . His purpose is settled and decided in 37 . He knows what he wants , and his goal is to find it and buy it . All men 38 walk into a shop and ask the shop assistant for what they want . If the shop has it in stock (库存) ，the deal can be done and 39 is completed in less than five minutes , with hardly any chat and to everyone’s 40 .

For a man , slight problems may begin when the shop doesn’t have what he wants . In that 41 , the salesman tries to sell something else —he 42 the nearest to the article required . A good salesman brings out such a substitute (替代品) 43 , and he may say : “ 44 know this jacket is not the style you want , sir , but would you like to try it for size , It 45 to be the colour you mentioned.” Few men have 46 with this treatment , and the usual response is : “This is the right colour and may be the right size , but I shouldn’t be 47 my time and yours by trying it on .”

For a woman , buying clothes is always done in the 48 way . Her shopping is not often 49 on need . She has never fully decided what she wants , and she is only “having a look round”. She is always 50 to persuasion , willing to try on any number of things . Deep in her mind is the thought of finding something that 51 thinks suits her . Most women have an excellent sense of value and are always on the look—out for the unexpected 52 , Faced with a roomful dresses , a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another 53 selecting the dress she wants to try on . It is a tiresome process , but apparently a(n) 54 one . Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting 55 .

第三部分：阅读理解

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

The Leaning Tower of Piss has gone against the laws of gravity for seven and a half centuries . Every year , on June 19th , a professor from the University of Pisa climbs to the bell tower and measures the increase in the slant (倾斜) with special instruments . And every year the professor makes the same report : the tower has leaned a bit —about an inch more . Last summer (the year of 2004), the 125—foot —high tower was leaning an incredible 15 feet out of line . Scientists say that unless a way is found to stop the slant , the tower will collapse in less than 80 years .

The tower is leaning because the soft soil of Pisa will not support it . Its foundation is sinking into the soil at an angle , causing the tower to lean .Since a slight shake could make the foundation loose , the ringing of the tower’s bells was forbidden in 1959 . And trucks are not allowed to pass in the neighborhood of the tower for this same reason .

56．The passage is mainly about _____.

A．a famous tower that leans B．a plan for saving the tower

C．the history of the Tower D．the cause of the tower’s slant

57．This summer the tower may be found to be in the slant by ___ according to the passage .

A．more than one inch B．exactly one inch

C．more than fifteen feet D．exactly fifteen feet

58．Truck traffic has been forbidden in the neighborhood of the tower .

A．to protect all the visitors B．to prevent the bell in the tower

C．to protect the foundation D．to keep the soil at the tower

There is one word that is on the lips of Americans , day and night , “Sorry”.

One time as I was walking on the street , a young man ran by hurriedly , brushing against my handbag . Even as he continued on his way , he turned back and said “sorry” to me . Even in a rush , he didn’t forget to apologize .

One day , after I bought some apples , the salesman was giving me the change , but I wasn’t ready for it , and a coin dropped on the ground, “I’m sorry ,” he said while bending down to pick it up . I was puzzled —why would he apologize when it was my fault ?

Another time , I stepped on a man’s foot in an escalator . At the same time , we both said “sorry” . I thought it interesting : was it really necessary for him apologize ?

Later on , an American friend explained to me that according to the American ideas, the escalator is public place which everyone should be able to stand in . After someone occupies a position in the escalator , making it difficult for someone else to find a place to stand in , isn’t it necessary to express an apology ?

During my stay in America , I gradually realized that when friction (摩擦) occurs in daily life , Americans don’t care much about who is responsible . If someone is troubled , a “sorry” is always necessary . Even if the other person is hurt , the “sorry” would cool tempers . Perhaps this is why I never saw anyone quarreling on the buses , subways or streets in America .

59．When I was walking in the street , ____ .

A．a young man wanted to rob me of my bag

B．a young man ran by and wanted to brush my bag

C．a young man said sorry to me for touching my bag

D．a young man came hurriedly to help me with my bag

60．When the salesman gave me the change , _____

A．I purposely didn’t want to accept it from the salesman

B．the salesman purposely didn’t want to pass it to me

C．I was slower to accept it than the salesman to give it to me

D．the salesman was slower to give it to me than I could accept it

61．The man on whose feet I stepped apologized to me because ____ .

A．the escalator is a public place B．the man was very afraid of me

C．the “sorry” said to me was for everyone

D．there wasn’t enough room to get my feet in

62．In this passage , the author seems to feel _____ the Americans’ “sorry”.

A．angry with B．disappointed with

C．interested in D．approving of

In only two decades (twenty years) Asian Americans have become the fastest-growing U.S. minority. As their children began moving up through the nation’s schools, it became clear that a new kind of culture was coming out. Their achievements are made in the nation’s best universities, where mathematics, science and engineering departments have taken on a decidedly Asian character. This special liking for mathematics and science is partly explained by the fact that Asian-American students who began their education abroad arrived in the U.S. with a solid grounding in mathematics but little or no knowledge of English. They are also influenced by the promise of a good job after college. Asians feel there will be less unfair treatment in areas like mathematics and science because they will be judged more objectively (客观地) . And the money spent on education is more immediately returned in something like engineering than with an arts degree.

Most Asian American students owe their success to the influence of parents who are determined that their children should take full advantage of what the American educational system has to offer. An effective measure of parental attention is homework. Asian parents spend more time with their children than American parents do, and it helps. Many researchers also believe there is something in Asian culture, such as family value, the importance of education and so on, that lead to their success.

Both explanations for academic success worry Asian Americans because of fears that they could cause the native Americans’ unhappiness. Many can remember when Chinese, Japanese and Filipino immigrants (移民) unequally treated because of social separation. Indeed, it was not until 1952 that laws were laid down giving all Asian immigrants the right to citizenship.

63. While making great achievements at college, Asian-American students _______.
A. feel they are mistreated because of limited knowledge of English
B. are afraid that their academic successes take on a strong Asian character
C. still worry about unfair treatment in society
D. generally feel it a shame to have to depend on their society

64. From the passage we can know the major factors that determine the success of Asian Americans are _______.
A. a solid base in basic mathematics and Asian culture
B. hard work and intelligence
C. parental help and a limited knowledge of English
D. Asian culture and the American educational system

65. Why did Asian Americans prefer something like engineering to an arts degree?
A. They could earn more money after graduation.
B. They couldn’t find a job with an arts degree.
C. People with an arts degree were looked down upon.
D. People majoring in engineering were respected.

66. Why do the two “explanations” (Line 1, Para. 3) worry Asian Americans?
A. They are afraid that they would again be separated from American society in general.
B. People would think that Asian students depend on their parents for success.
C. Asian Americans would be a danger to other minorities.
D. American academic achievements have taken on too strong an Asian character.

East Timor（东帝汶） became the world’s newest nation on Monday after centuries of foreign rules.

East Timor lies between Australia and Indonesia. The island lies to the north of Australia and is 2,100 kilometers east of Jakarta（雅加达）. The latter ruled the territory for 24 often bloody years until the United Nations took over in 1999. East Timor was invaded (入侵) by Portugal in 1642. Dutch (荷兰) colonial rule expanded over the rest of Indonesian archipelago (群岛) at the same time. A treaty in 1859 gave the eastern part of the island to the Dutch.

The Portuguese administration withdrew (撤退) from Dili, which is the capital of the new country, in August 1975. Indonesian troops invaded in December and Jakarta took no notice of a call by the United Nations to withdraw its troops.

The United Nations took over the running of East Timor in late 1999, helping to lay the foundations for independence. The United Nations kept some police and civilian officials in East Timor after May 20, 2002. On April 14, East Timor held its first presidential election, with 86 percent of those who could read and write to vote, turning out former guerrilla leader and independence hero Xanana Gusmao. This was a great victory over his only rival (对手).

East Timor is one of Asia’s poorest countries. It is an agricultural society, with coffee the main export crop. It also exports marble and has a lot of oil.

East Timor has a population of approximately 740,000. Ninety percent of East Timorese are Roman Catholic (天主教徒), whereas the rest of Indonesia, the last ruling power, is mostly Muslim.

67. Which of the following shows the correct relationship of the places mentioned?
J—Jakarta I—Indonesia A—Australia E—East Timor D—Dili

68. Which is the correct order according to the passage?
a. The Portuguese withdrew from East Timor.
b. East Timor held its first presidential election.
c. Portugal invaded Timor.
d. The United Nations took over the running of East Timor.
e. Indonesian troops invaded East Timor.
A. cadbe B. cadeb C. caedb D. acdeb.

69. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. East Timor was founded in 1999.
B. East Timor has a mixed population of more than a million.
C. All officials and police left East Timor after May 20, 2002.
D. Xanana Gusmao, independence hero, was elected president of East Timor.

70. From the text we can conclude ________.

A. East Timor is a young country with a short history of only several years

B. the UN played an important role in founding an independent East Timor

C. The Portuguese administration was driven away from Dili by Indonesian troops

D. 80 percent of East Timorese took part in the first presidential election

第II卷（两部分，共35分）

第四部分 任务型阅读（共10小题;每小题1分，满分10分）

第一节、请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。注重：每空一词。

Whenever we meet with difficulty or fail, teachers, parents or others often say to us or perhaps we say to ourselves, “Never give up.” These can be encouraging words and words of determination. A person who believes in himself will keep trying to reach his goal no matter how many times he fails. In my opinion, the quality of determination to succeed is an important one to have. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up.

One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieve anything. It is not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt at something new, so we should not feel disappointed and should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail, we will not be able to develop new skills and grow as people. Another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes so that we cannot make the same mistakes. If we do not try again, the lesson we have learned is wasted. Finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. If we never challenge ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities.

In short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. Whether we succeed in the end or not, we will learn something, and what we learn will help us to become better, more confident people. Furthermore, if we give up, we have no chance of attaining our goals any more, but if we keep making great efforts, there is always a chance that we will succeed one day.

Topic: Never Give Up

Possible meanings and the author’s opinions

The words “Never give up” can 71 _____ others or oneself and express one’s determination

A person who wants to 72 _______ should have the quality. So we should never give up.

The 73

If we give up too easily, maybe we will achieve 74 , so when we fail in our first attempt at something new, we should not 75 ourselves but try again.

Always giving up means that we will not be able to 76 any progress.

Never giving up will make us learn from the mistakes we’ve made before and learn the

77_________ so as not to make the same mistakes.

To reach our goals and develop the confidence which can help us 78 ourselves, we must not give up but challenge ourselves.

Conclusions

If you give up, you will have no 79 of reaching your goals.

Never give up and you will attain your goals sooner or 80 .

Dear Emily,

I’m glad to learn that you’re interested in China and I feel honoured to introduce my country to you.

As is known to all, China, with an area of 9,600,000 square kilomtres, is the third largest country in the world and is rich in many natural resources. If you travel in China, you’ll find interesting differences between different areas and different nations, as China is a big country and has 56 nations. Despite of the differences, all of us are living together harmoniously.

Every year China attracts millions of tourists because of its beautiful scenery and cultural relics. The Great Wall, the Forbidden City, Jiuzhaigou, etc. are most famous among them.

I hope you’ll come to China and so I can proudly show you places of interest .

Yours

Li Hua
