Task 1
Stress may be defined as the response of the body to any demand. Whenever people experience something pleasant or unpleasant, we say they are under stress. We call pleasant kind ―eustress‖, the unpleasant kind ―distress‖.
People sometimes compare our lives with that of the cave man, who didn’t have to worry about the stock market or the atomic bomb. They forget that the cave man worried about being eaten by a bear or about dying of hunger—things that few people worry about today. It’s not that people suffer more stress today; it’s just that they think they do.
It is inconceivable that anyone should have no stress at all. Most people who are ambitious and want to accomplish something live on stress. They need it. But excessive stress is by all means harmful. Worse, chronic exposure to stress over a long time may cause more serious diseases and may actually shorten your life.
The most frequent causes of distress in man are psychological – lack of adaptability, not having a code of behavior. So the secret of cooping with stress is not to avoid it but to do what you like to do and what you were made to do, at your own rate. For most people, it is really a matter of learning how to behave in various situations. The most important thing is to have a code of life, to know how to live.
1. The modern man is suffering _____.
A. more stress than the cave man
B. less stress than the cave man
B. different stress from the cave man D. same stress as the cave man
2. Which of the following is not an example that causes distress?
A. Lacking in adaptability and code of life.
B. Killing a bear in hunting.
C. The failure to pass final examinations.
D. Having an economic problem.
3. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.Every one will suffer certain kinds of stress in his life.
B.Chronic exposure to stress may shorten your life.
C.Excessive stress is especially harmful to health.
D.Most people can learn to avoid stress.
4. In the second sentence of the third paragraph, ―live on stress‖ implies that ___.
A. stress is necessary to them.
B. they can control stress.
C. stress is by all means harmful to them.
D. they have too much stress.
5. According to the passage, one should _______.
A. try to avoid as much stress as possible.
B. cope with stress in different ways
C. learn to do things at his own rate
D. have the response of the body to any demand Task 2
Like most people, I was brought up to look upon life as a process of getting. It was not until in my late thirties that I made this important discovery: giving-away makes life so much more exciting. One discovery I made about giving-away is that it is almost impossible to give away anything in this world without getting something back, though the return often comes in an unexpected form. One Sunday morning the local post office delivered an important special delivery letter to my home, though it was addressed to me at my office. I wrote the postmaster a note of appreciation. More than a year later I needed a post-office box for a new business I was starting. I was told at the window that there were no boxes left, and that my name would have to go on a long waiting list. As I was about to leave, the postmaster appeared in the doorway. He had overheard our conversation. ―Wasn’t it you that wrote us that letter a year ago about delivering a special delivery to your home?‖ I said it was. ―Well, you certainly are going to have a box in this post office if we have to make one for you. Y ou don’t know what a letter like that means to us. We usually get nothing but complaints.‖
6. At first the author looked upon life as a process of getting. He formed this view of life because_______.

8. When the author needed a post-office box,_________.
A he wrote the postmaster a note of appreciation.
B he asked to put his name on a waiting list.
C he tried to see the postmaster.
D many had applied for post-office boxes before him.
9. The postmaster promised__________.

B. to let the author have a post-office box.

第三部分：阅读理解（Part III Reading Comprehension）, 共20题，4节内容，考试时间为35分钟。Task 1
More than 30, 000 drivers and front seat passengers are killed or seriously injured each year. At a speed of only 30 miles per hour it is the same as falling from a third-floor windows. Wearing a seat belt saves lives; it reduces your chance of death or serious injury by more than half.
Therefore, drivers or front seat passengers over 14 in most vehicles must wear a seat belt. If you do not, you could be fined up to $50. It will no be up to the drivers to make sure you wear your belt. But it will be the driver’s responsibility to make sure that children under 14 do not ride in the front unless they are wearing a seat belt of some kind.
However, you do not have to wear a seat belt if you are reversing your vehicle; or you are making a local delivery or collection using a special vehicle; or if you have a valid medical certificate which excuses you from wearing it. Make sure these circumstances apply to you before you decide not to wear your seat belt. Remember you may be taken to court for not doing so, and you may be fined if you cannot prove to the court that you have been excused from wearing it.
1. This text is taken from ____.
A. a medical magazine
B. a police report
C. a legal document
D. a government information booklet
2. Wearing a seat belt in a vehicle ____.
A. reduces road accidents by more than half
B. saves lives while driving at a speed up to 30 miles per hour
C. reduces the death rate in traffic accidents
D. saves more than 15, 000 lives each year
3. It is the driver’s responsibility to ____.
A. make the front seat passenger wear a seat belt
B. make the front seat children under 14 wear a seat belt
C. stop children riding in the front seat
D. wear a seat belt each time he drives
4. According to the text, which of the following riding in the front does not have to wear a seat belt?
A. Someone who is backing the car into a space.
B. Someone who is picking up the children from the local school.
C. Someone who is delivering invitation letters.
D. Someone who is under 14.
5. For some people, it may be better ____.
A. to wear a seat belt for health reasons
B. not to wear a seat belt for health reasons
C. to get a valid medical certificate before wearing a seat belt
D. to pay a fine rather than wear a seat belt
Task 2
Generally speaking, people want to keep a wild animal as a pet for one of many reasons: they want to impress other people by owning an unusual, uncommon animal as a pet. In no case is the happiness of the animal at the heart of the matter.
If you do want to own a wild animal, for instance a fox ( usually a little larger than your average house cat), you have to take this test first: go to your nearest Humane Society Shelter and bring home a grown cat and a very active dog. Raise them and be with them; consider them your best friends. Do not leave them alone for more than 9 hours in any given day; do not hit them or shout at them; and do not abuse them in any way. If, after two years, both animal are alive and are still with you without your caging them or locking them in a part of your home most of the day, then maybe you have what it takes to own a wild animal.
If the test sounds stupid or unworkable, or if you just can’t bring yourself to stand such unlovable animals for two years, then you are not suited to owning a fox.
The problem here is in the definition of the word pet. A pet is something you keep in your house or around your yard as a companion---- a companion who is usually prevented from escaping one way or another. Some animals---- dogs and cats, will voluntarily stay with a human even if given the chance to get away. In this sense, dogs and cats are true pets. Please don’t make the life of some wild animals a living hell by trying to raise one as a pet.
6. Which reason is true for people keeping a wild animal as a pet in the passage?
A. They want to show off to other people.
B. Wild animals are orderly.
C. They just want to keep a wild animal for business purpose.
D. They love wild animals heartily.
7. To pass the test, you must make it certain that ____.
A. you take the trying animals with you most of the time.
B. you are kind to the trying animals
C. the trying animals are still in good condition in two years.
D. all of the above
8. It can be inferred that of all the animals mentioned in the passage a ____ is the most difficult one to keep as a pet.
A. wild pig
B. fox
C. tiger
D. dog
9. According to the author, you can raise a wild animal if you ____.
A. think the test ridiculous
B. can’t bear dogs and cats
C. may work more than 9 hours
D. may raise the trying animals well for 2 years.
10. What does the word ― hell‖ in the last sentence mean?
A. The miserable place after death
B. A place of great suffering
C. Sufferers in a miserable place
D. Evil and dark forces.
Task 3
I found my father a very hard man to understand when I was young. He was very short and thin and had large blue eyes. I could have loved him as I did my mother, but he seemed to hold us off so that we could not approach him or sit on his knee as love to do. I believe he had a hard life as a child, and I know that he left school at the age of ten and started to work. This made him an unsociable man, unfriendly even to the people closest to him. I never knew him to have a close friend as the other men did.
Everything he did had to be precise. If he chopped the sticks for the fire, each stick would be the same length and thickness as all the others, and they would all be stacked without one out of place. His motto was ― If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing well‖. In our household his word was law and nobody dared dispute it.
He worked hard when in a job and saw to it that we children learned the meaning of work.
My mother did not have much pleasure but I do not remember her ever complaining ---- except on Sunday afternoons when father would take off his clothes and get into bed, leaving her to mend his working clothes while he had his rest. This she disliked very much, for the clothes were dirty from the work he had been doing and she hated handling anything that was not clean.
11. The writer found it difficult to understand her father because he ____.
A. looked distant
B. rejected affection
C. ill-treated the family
D. hated keeping company with children
12. What did the writer think made her father unsociable?
A. An unhappy childhood.
B. A lack of friends
C. No interest in hobbies
D. Not smoking or drinking
13. What was particular about the sticks for the fire chopped by her father?
A. They were arranged in a patter
B. They were chopped in only one place.
C. They were similar in length
D. They all weighed the same.
14. The writer’s father believed that ____.
A. you should only do things for which you have the ability
B. only important jobs are worth doing well
C. you should only attempt worthwhile jobs
D. anything you do should be done to your best ability
15. What did the writer’s mother dislike about Sunday afternoons?
A. Working while her husband rested.
B. Repairing her husband’s clothes.
C. Not being able to derive any pleasure from what she herself found delightful.
D. Touching unclean clothes.

Task 1
It is a well-known fact that those who suffer from stress at work are often unskilled workers doing uninteresting, repetitive jobs, especially those on production lines. Many of them have already turned to medicines to fight against sleeplessness and fear about the future, two of the signs of long-term stress and depression. In Britain, people spend on million pounds a year on different kinds of medicines. About one-third of this is spent on those medicines dealing with stress and depression. People take three million sleeping tablets (药片) every night. Although these ―drugs of mind‖ can be extremely useful in cases of crisis, most patients would be better off without them.
There are many causes of stress: uninteresting work, unemployment, poor housing, family problems, over-crowding and financial worry are all important factors. Nevertheless, doctors believe that if people learnt to breathe properly, took more exercise, used their leisure time more actively and expressed their anger instead of holding it in, they would not depend so muc h on drugs, which treat only the outward signs and not the cause of the stress. If doctors refused prescriptions (处方) more often and discouraged patients with minor illnesses from visiting the doctors, the country would have more money to spend on improving leisure facilities and adult education, which are at present inadequate in many parts of the country. Moreover, doctors would
have more time to spend on those patients in real need of their help.
1. The passage tells us that ____.
A.unskilled workers are more likely to suffer from stress

B. the ways to treat the cause of the stress remain unknown
C. those who suffer from stress need to have a good rest
D. taking medicines is not a good way to overcome stress
4. The word ―it‖ (Line 4, Para. 2) refers to ____.
A.stress
B. mind
C. exercise
D. anger
5. In this passage, the writer states that ____.
A. patients should visit their doctors whenever they feel unwell

Task 1
In 99 cases out of 100, insomnia(失眠) is caused by a disturbance of the natural sleep rhythm. The reasons why the rhythm has been disturbed are many and they range from drugs that are being taken to treat a separate medical condition to anxiety. A sudden change in lifestyle or climate could do it, or just that you’ve fallen into the habit of dozing off(打瞌睡) in front of the television. Certainly the body must have enough sleep. Tests that deprived people of sleep have proved lack of it can cause fairly rapid physical and mental deterioration(恶化). But on the other hand, it
doesn’t need too much. So if you’re sleeping in front of the TV, you won’t sleep soundly at night. Similarly, if you’re holidaying in Spain, and spending your days sleeping on the beach, chances are that you’ll be wide awake at bedtime.
Of course, the problem for my summer insomniacs is that, despite an almost overwhelming urge to put their heads down on their desks in the afternoons, they aren’t getting any extra sleep to compensate for their wakeful nights. For the worst sufferers I sometimes prescribe(开药方) a mild sleeping pill which, after a few nights, reestablishes the body’s natural sleep rhythm, conditioning it to accept the heat.
1. From the passage, insomnia results from ______.
A)the interrupting of the ordinary sleep pattern B) being unable to sleep
C)keeping awake at night D) drugs to treat a special disease
2. Lack of sleep will lead to ______.
A. a sudden change in lifestyle B) a good condition in body
C) the habit of being sleep in front of the television
D) a quick drop in both body and mind condition
3. A mild sleeping pill can help a person well ______.
A)spend time sleeping B) recover their normal sleep
C) keep awake at night D) compensate for their missing sleep
4. The problem for the author’s insomniacs is that they ______.
A.can’t make up for the sleepless nights B) sleep in the afternoon
C) can have extra sleep at night D) can never sleep well
5. It can be inferred that the writer is a ______.
A.singer B）sufferer C) doctor D) tourist
Task 2
Child labor- the employment of children in industry, often against their will- has been a problem for many years. Over a hundred years ago, Charles Dickens shocked many of his readers when he described the conditions under which young children worked in British factories. The conditions Dickens described continue almost unchanged today in many parts of the world. The only difference is that today employment of children is confined to small industries and family businesses, such as hotels, restaurants and particularly farms, rather than to large factories.
Girls suffer more from child labor practices than boys. Many of them are forced to start work when they are only ten years old. Although the work they are given to do is often light, it is often harmful to the health. Recently, children as young as six years were found to be working in Asian factories, and the children were working from eight to fourteen hours a day in overcrowded and unhealthy working conditions. Sometimes a whole family group is employed, with the payment going to a parent or older relative. The children not only receive nothing or very little for their long hours of work, but also they are prevented from attending school. Therefore, when they become older they are unable to do any other kind of work.
The solution to the problem of child labor is clearly better laws to protect young children, greater supervision(监督) of industry and heavier fines for those who break the laws. Only in this way can young boys and girls be allowed to enjoy the most valuable time of their childhood lives.
6. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the first paragraph?
E.Children are often willing to work in large factories.
F.Most children are working in British factories.
G.The working conditions for children have been improved since Dickens’ times.
H.Charles Dickens described in his novels the poor working conditions for child labor.
7.The conditions under which young children work___________.
B.have improved since a hundred years ago
C.are even worse than those a hundred years ago
D.are similar to those a hundred years ago
E.are exactly the same as those a hundred years ago
8.Girls work is ________________.
E.not harmful to the health though it is heavy
F.not harmful to the health because it is light
G.harmful to the health though it is light
H.harmful to the health because it is heavy
9. Y oung children go to work ______________.
A. because they are forced to
B. in order to be skillful in a certain kind of work
C. in order to earn money for education
D. in order to be paid well
10. To solve the problem of child labor, the writer suggests _______.
A. punishing lawbreakers with severer fines, improving children’s working conditions, and
confining employment of children to light industries
B. improving laws of protecting children’s interests, looking over factories more closely, and
punishing lawbreakers with severer fines
C. improving laws of protecting children’s interests, giving them lighter work, and raising
their payment
D. confining employment of children to small industries and family businesses, looking over
factories more closely, and improving the system of education

The servants were up very late on the Saturday evening, getting everything ready for the next day, and while they were busy they saw the glow (暗淡的光) of a fire start in the sky. By 3 o'clock on the Sunday morning, the glow had become so bright that one of the servants, Jane, woke her master to see it. Pepys went to the window to watch it. It seemed fairly far away, so after a time he went back to bed. When he got up in the morning, it looked as though the fire was dying down, though he could still see some flames. So he set to work to tidy his room and put his things back where he wanted them after the servants had cleaned everything. While he was doing this, Jane came in to say that she had heard that the fire was a bad one: three hundred houses had been burned down in the night and the fire was still burning. Pepys went out to see for himself. He went to the Tower of London and climbed up on a high part of the building so that he could see what was happening. From there, Pepys could see that it was, indeed, a bad fire and that even the houses on London Bridge were burning. Someone told him that the fire had started in a

World of the Future Scientists think that wonderful things may come true in the future. Future means a time that is not yet here. It can be a short time from now or a long time from now. Some of the underwater wonders are almost ready to come true now. Others won't come tree, we think, until a long time from now. Some, of course, may never come true--but who knows for sure? They may. What are some of the wonders that may come true in the future? A world underground The green utopia (an ideally perfect place) underground is going to help us regain a more harmonious relationship between the often opposing sides of large-scale development and our ecosystem. The city may be called Alice City, from Alice's Adventure in the Wonderland, which offers a wonderful world that is almost as fantastical as that was described in the book. A large clear dome (圆顶), within an area of open parkland, leads into a multi-leveled structured metropolis of underground offices, housing, transportation and public areas. There will be everything to make the city as self-sufficient as possible including shopping malls, theatres and sports complexes in addition to facilities (contained in a separate structure) for power generation, heating and waste recycling. Apart from offering an almost limitless space for development, such underground development has many more attractive ecological advantages over traditional forms of housing. It is less disturbing than high rise development and therefore favorable in environmentally sensitive areas. Land above the complex can be set aside for parkland and recreational use. In towns or cities where pollution levels are high, air can be filtered through air pipes in the roof of an underground housing or industrial complex. A world underwater At the docks you step into a shiny metal submarine that is shaped like a shark. The door is closed behind you, and powerful engine starts to push. Down slides the submarine--like a shark diving. Deeper and deeper under the water. Soon all sunlight is gone. The headlights of the diving ship are turned on. Then, six miles below, you come to the sea bottom. From the diving submarine, you change to tiny jet boat and ride along close to the bottom of the ocean, almost as you would skim over the land in an air-plane. As you travel, you have fun looking out the window at the sights on the bottom of the ocean. You see strange fish and underwater mountains, cliffs, and valleys. But more than that--hotels and mining camps and farms and factories! A world in space Let's go back to dry land and take a future journey the other way-up instead of down. Huge rocket liners take you into space to visit the Moon Camp. You walk around on the moon in a special moon suit. You visit an observatory where a giant telescope looks far into space--farther than anyone has ever been able to see from Earth. You go deep down into one of the moon mines. After you have visited the moon, you visit the Mars Colony and the Venus Exploration Outpost. A new world on the Earth Let's go back to Earth. In the far, far future, girls--and boys, too--may be playing with dolls that look like the people of the planets visited by our spacemen. To control or run all kinds of toys, boys and girls may learn to use special computers --machines that answer questions and do arithmetic faster than you can blink. Bicycles and perhaps skates may be run by jet power, and a new thing to ride may be a small flying saucer. Imagine a race between them! There may be telepathy (心灵感应) helmets that send thought waves from your brain to that of your friend miles away. You just think a thought and your friend knows it! You can have secrets with each other that nobody else can turn in on! Robots There will be other surprises in the future. How would you like to have a robot playmate? Having robot playmates may not be-so much fun as it seems. But maybe a boy with a wrench (扳手) and a screwdriver can fix the robot so that it won't be too perfect! Food What about the food of the future? Scientists think that much of it will be artificial --made in factories from such surprising things as coal, limestone, air, and water. You don't think that ice-cream or cake or candy or even bread and potatoes made out of these things will taste very good? You may be wrong. These artificial things will be blended so skillfully by food chemists that the food of the future probably will be delicious. It probably will also be healthful because all the things that you need to live a long and healthy life will be put into it. A longer life Scientists of the future will almost certainly find other ways to make life last longer. They probably will find cures for most diseases. Hospitals will probably have "body banks" that can give you almost any new part you need to keep on living. People of the future may live to be a lot older than 100 years. TV Are you wondering whether there'll be television in the future? There'll almost certainly be wonderful programs. Television screens probably will be large and flat, hanging on the wall or going across the four walls of a room. People on the screen will look as real as if they were right in the room with you. Highways What about highways of the future? Well, a very small child probably will be able to drive a car. Nobody will need to steer. Electric signals will hold each car on the right road to get wherever the "driver" wants to go. And it probably will be impossible for cars to smash together. Controls that won't even have to be touched will make all speeding cars miss each other or will put on the brakes. Driving by car will be as safe as being at home. Weather control But maybe the most wonderful surprise in the future will be weather control. Cities may have giant plastic domes over them to keep out snow, rain, or storms. When you plan a picnic in a park, you won't have to worry about rain. It will rain only when the "weatherman" thinks it is needed to freshen the air inside the city. All other days will be fair and warm. The future should be a wonderful time in which to live. But the time you axe living in now was also "a wonderful future" to the people who lived 100 years ago. 1. The underground city would get its name from a book called Alice's Adventure in the Wonderland. A. Y B. N C. NG 2. The multi-leveled structure underground would include everything that is necessary to a city, from offices, shopping malls to power and heating system. A. Y B. N C. NG

Such an imbalance exists when the total value of a country’s imports exceeds that of its exports. For example, if a country buys $25 billion of products from other countries, yet sells only $10 billion of its own products overseas, its trade deficit（贸易逆差）is $15 billion. Many underdeveloped nations find themselves in this position because they lack natural resources or the industrial capacity to use these resources, and thus have to import
