And they must have 37 how difficult it is to write a 38 children’s book. Either the author (writer) has aimed (目标)too 39 , so that the children can’t follow what is in his (or more often, her ) story, 40 the story seems to be talking to the readers. The best children’s books are 41 very difficult nor very simple, and satisfy both the 42 who hears the story and the adult (grown-up) who 43 it. Unfortunately, there are in fact 44 books like this, 45 the problem of finding the right bedtime story is not 46 to solve (解决). This may be why many of the books regarded as 47 of children’s literature were in fact written for 48 . “Alice in Wonderland” is perhaps the 49 of this. Children, left for themselves, often 50 the worst possible interest in literature. Just leave a child in a bookshop or 51 and he will 52 willingly choose the books written in an unimaginative way, or have a look at most children’s comics, full of the stories and jokes which are the 53 of teachers and right-thinking-parents. Perhaps we parents should stop trying to brainwash (洗脑) children into 54 our taste in literature. After all children and adults are so 55 that we parents should not expect that they will enjoy the same books. So I suppose we’ll just have to compromise (妥协) over that bedtime story. 36. A. to B. in C. with D. around 37. A. hoped B. realized C. told D. said 38. A. short B. long C. bad D. good 39. A. easy B. short C. high D. difficult 40. A. and B. but C. or D. so 41. A. both B. neither C. either D. very 42. A. child B. father C. mother D. teacher 43. A. hears B. buys C. understands D. reads 44. A. few B. many C. a great deal of D. a great number of 45. A. but B. however C. so D. because 46. A. hard B. easy C. enough D. fast 47. A. articles B. work C. arts D. works 48. A. grown-ups B. girls C. boys D. children 49. A. funniest B. hardest C. clearest D. easiest 50. A. are B. show C. find D. add 51. A. school B. home C. office D. library 52. A. more B. less C. able D. be 53. A. lovingness B. interests C. rejections(拒绝) D. readings 54. A. receiving B. accepting C. having D. refusing 55. A. same B. friendly C. different D. common 第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项。 AA good memory is a great help in learning a language. Everybody learns his own language by remembering what he hears when he is a small child, and some children, like boys and girls who live abroad with their parents, seem to learn two languages almost as easily as one. In school it is not easy to learn a second language because the pupils have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects, too. A man’s mind is rather like a camera, but it takes photos not only of what we see but of what we feel, hear, smell and taste. When we take a real photo with a camera, there is much to do before the photo is finished and ready to show to our friends. In the same way there is much work to be done before we can keep a picture forever in our mind. Memory is the diary that we all carry about with us. 56. We usually begin to learn our own language by ________ it. A. speaking B. hearing C. saying D. teaching
57. If you have a good ________ , you’ll have less difficulty in learning something. A. teacher B. camera C. memory D. family 58. The children who live abroad with their parents can learn two languages more easily, because ______. A. they are very clever B. they have good teachers C. they have more chances to use these languages D. they have a better life 59. Memory is ________ that we write in our mind and carry about. A. the best diary B. the best camera C. a great help D.a beautiful picture BSam, a dog, was left behind in Colorado while his owners, Mr. And Mrs. Green moved to Southern California. They did not give the dog up. They found him a very nice home before they moved. They would have let Sam accompany them, but they were afraid the dog’s presence would make it difficult for them to rent a house when they reached their destination. The Green family lived in Colorado for less than a year. Before that, they had lived in the same neighborhood in California to which they returned. So Sam had been there before, but only for a short time when he was young. Several months after the Greens left Colorado, after they were comfortably settled back in California, they heard a scratch at the door. They couldn’t imagine who might be there. It never occurred to them that it might be Sam, because they were sure he was happily set up with his new family back in Colorado. When they opened the door, the Greens saw a dirty, tired dog with very hurting feet. The animal looked a little bit like Sam, but no one could believe that Sam could have walked 840 miles on his own. The tired dog spent the night under the family car. The next day, when he was more rested, he performed some of his old tricks. The Greens knew they had their own dog back. 60. The story suggests that _______ . A. dog owners have trouble renting B. many people treat their pets hadly C. keeping a dog is easy D. dogs are too much trouble 61. Which is the right order of the following events according to the passage? a. Sam walked to California. b. The Greens moved to Colorado. c. The Greens left Sam. d. The Greens returned to California. e. Sam spent the night under the family car. A. b, d, c, e, a B. b, c, d, a, e C. a, c, b, e, d D. c, e, d, a, b 62. The underlined word “destination” in the first paragraph means _________. A. the cost of living B. the country of one’s birth C. the damage to oneself D. the place to which one is going 63. The Greens knew the dog was Sam ________. A. because of his hurting feet B. from the color and the markings C. by the way he walked D. after he did some tricks C. For years scientists have been worried about the effects of air pollution on the earth’s natural conditions. Some believe the air inside many houses may be more dangerous than the air outside. It may be one hundred times worse. Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to suffer eye pain, headache and other problems. Some pollutants (污染物) can cause breathing disorders, diseases of blood and even cancer. Most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution. People have paid more attention to the problem now. It is said that when builders began making houses and offices they did not waste energy. To do this they built buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside. They also began using man-made building materials. These materials are now known to let out harmful gases. As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it. They discovered a natural pollution control system for building-green plants. Scientists do not really know how plants control air pollution. They believe that a plant’s leaves absorb (吸收) or take in the pollutants. In exchange the plant lets out oxygen through its leaves and small organizations on its roots. Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square metres of space. Studies of different plants show that each absorbs different chemicals. So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants. Having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and more healthy place. 64. Generally speaking, indoor air pollution may be more harmful than the air outside because _______. A. indoor air pollution can often make people seriously ill B. man-made building materials give off dangerous gases C. there may be more harmful gases outside the buildings D. the flow of air indoors is limited, which is very harmful 65. Some kind of indoor pollution can be found in ________. A. every modern house B. every old house C. all kinds of houses D.all kinds of offices 66. The indoor air pollution is caused by ________. A. the limit of the flow of air between inside and outside B. the building way that the builders want to save energy C. the building things that are made of man-made materials D. the man-made building materials and the limit of air-flow 67. The reason why we should use different kinds of plants to clean the air is that ________. A. plants can let out all kinds of pollutants indoors B. plants may take in more oxygen which people need C. plants can absorb all kinds of harmful indoor chemicals D. plants can make our houses prettier and more healthy DNew York: When the first plane struck 1 World Trade Center at 8:48 am on Tuesday, the people in 2 World Trade Center who saw the instant (瞬间的) damage to the other tower realized clearly what they, too, must do: get out fast. Katherine Ilachinsiki, who had been knocked off her chair by the blast (一阵)of heat exploding from the neighboring tower, was one of those. Despite her 70 years of age, Mrs Ilachinsiki, an architect working on the 91st floor of 2 World Trade Center, the south tower, went for the stairs. Twelve floors above her, Judy Wein, an executive (经理), cried sharply and set off too. But others up and down the 110 floors, many without seeing the damage across the way and thus unclear about what was happening, were not so sure. And the 18 minutes before the next plane would hit were ticking off. Most people had no idea about what was the best thing to do, formal announcements inside the south tower asked people to stay put, assuring (使……确信) them that the building was sound and the threat (威胁)was limited to the other tower. Some left, others stayed. Some began to climb down and, when met with more announcements and other cautions (警告) to stop or return, went back up. The decisions made in those instants proved to be of great importance, because many who chose to stay were killed completely when the second plane crashed (坠落,碰撞) into the south tower. One of those caught in indecision (犹豫不决) was the executive at Fuji Bank USA. Richard Jacobs of Fuji Bank left the 79th floor with the other office workers, but on the 48th floor they heard the announcement that the situation was under control. Several got in the lifts and went back up, two minutes or so before the plane crashed into their floor. “I just don’t know what happened to them,” Mr Jacobs said. 68. From the passage, we know that the south tower was hit by the plane ________. A. at 8:30 B. 18 minutes earlier than the north tower C. at around 9:06 D. at 8:48 69. The underlined words “stay put” means ________. A. stay in the building B. leave at once C. put everything back and then leave D. keep silent 70. Which floor was hit by the second plane? A. The 91st floor B. The 103rd floor C. The 60th floor D. The 79th floor 71. Fewer people would have died if ________. A. more announcements had been made B. people hadn’t used the lifts C. the attack had happened on a weekend D. the people had obeyed the office rules EPaloalto, California— “Turning off the television may help prevent children from getting fatter—even if they do not change their diet,” US researchers said last week. A study of 192 third and fourth graders, generally aged eight and nine found that children who cut the number of hours spent watching television increased nearly two pounds (0.91kg) less over a one-year period than those who did not change their television diet. “The findings are important because they show that weight loss can only be the result of a reduction in television viewing and not any other activity,” said Thomas Robinson, a pediatrician (儿科专家) at Stanford University. “American children spend an average of more than four hours per day watching television and videos or playing video games. And rates of childhood being very fat have doubled over the past 20 years,” Robinsin said. In the study presented this week to the Pediatric Academic Societies annual meeting in San Francisco, the researchers persuaded about 100 of the students to reduce their television viewing by one-quarter to one-third. Children watching fewer hours of television showed a much smaller increase in waist (腰) size and had less body fat than other students who continued their normal television viewing, even though neither group ate a special diet nor took part in any extra exercise. “One explanation for the weight loss could be the children unstuck to the television may simply have been moving around more and burning off calories,” Robinson said. “Another reason might be eating fewer meals in front of the television. Some studies have suggested that eating in front of the TV encourages people to eat more,” Robinson said. 72. The report tells us that children will get fatter if they ________. A. eat in front of the TV B. change their diet C. do special exercises D. spend much time watching TV 73. According to the report, the time American children usually spend on watching TV and videos or playing video games ________. A. is four hours a day or more B. is less than four hours a day C. has doubled in the last 20 years D. has been reduced to one-quarter
74. The time some children were persuaded to spend on TV viewing every day was less than ____. A. one hour B. two hours C. three hours D. four hours 75. Watching TV will increase kid’s weight because ________. A. they usually eat more and move less B. they no longer take part in outdoor activities C. they will not burn off calories D. they will enjoy having meals in front of the television 第二卷(共35分) 第四部分:写(共两节,满分35分) 第一节:短文改错(共10小题,每小题1分,满分10分) 此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。对标有题号的每一作出判断:如无错误,在该行右边横线上画一个勾(√);如有错误(每行只有一个错误),则按下列情况改正: 该行多一个词:把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉,在该行右边横线上写出该词,并也用斜线划掉。 该行缺一个词:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),在该行右边横线上写出该词。 该行错一个词:在错的词下划一横线,在该行右边横线上写出改正后的词。 注意:原行没有错的不要改。 Eddie liked music very much.

W:You can have my farm at a low price, $200, if you want it. M:All right. You’re giving me the farm, aren’t you? (Text 9) It was time to go home. A doctor was going to call on one of his patients. There was ice on the road and the doctor’s car hit a tree and turned over three times. To his surprise, he was not hurt. He got out of the car and walked to the nearest house. He wanted to telephone the garage for help. The door was opened by one of his patients. “Oh, doctor,” she said. “ I have only just telephoned you. You must have a very fast car. You got here very quickly indeed. There has been a very bad accident on the road outside. I saw it through the window. I’m sure the driver will need your help.” (Text 10) Beethoven, a famous musician in the world, was born in Germany in 1770. In his childhood Beethoven didn’t have a happy life. His father was a singer. When he was only four, his father began to make him practise hour after hour on different musical instruments. Beethoven loved music, and he was able to go around giving concerts when he was only a boy of eleven. At the age of seventeen, he won high praise from Mozart, the great musician at that time. Beethoven was often poor and ill during his life. After one illness, he suddenly found himself deaf. At that time he was only thirty-one. It was a blow to him indeed, but he still went on working and writing music pieces. To people’s surprise, some of his best pieces were written after he lost his hearing. In 1827 leaving more than 300 pieces, the great musician died, but his name is still remembered to this day.
