To the NBA, the 2.23-meter center offers an opening of a different sort into the world’s largest new market. Yao’s NBA first appearance against the Indiana Pacers in October reached 287 million families in the US. That game might have been a bit of a letdown to Yao’s fans: He played just 11 of the 48 minutes, had two rebounds(篮板) and got no points. Comparing that with his performance on December 19, also against Indiana, Yao won 29 points and 10 rebounds. “This was one of the most exciting games I’ve had,” Yao said after Houston’s 95-83 victory. The NBA has to be excited about his on-count success. In all his games, he’s averaging 12.7 points and 7.7 rebounds, quite good for a new star. “Yao Ming has brought the NBA closer to the Chinese,” said NBA spokeswoman Cheong Sau Ching, “That makes the dream seem practical for other people in China and proud to be Chinese.”‎ The 22-year-old Yao is not the country’s first player in the NBA: Wang Zhizhi broke down the Dallas Mavericks in November 2003. But Yao’s combination of modesty（谦虚）and skills make him a favorite back home.‎ ‎24. What’s the direct reason for Xing Tao to join the school basketball team? ‎ A. He watched an NBA game. B. He liked basketball.‎ C. He hoped to play for the NBA. D. He had dream that he would become a basketball ‎ star.‎ ‎25. How many points did Yao Ming win in his first game in the NBA? ‎ A. zero B. two C. 29 D. 10‎ ‎26. What does the word “letdown” in line 6, paragraph 2 mean? ‎ A. failure B. surprise C. disappointment D. sadness.‎ ‎27. Why does Yao Ming win more popularity than Wang Zhizhi at home?‎ A. He has performed excellently. B. He is modest C. More and more Chinese people like to watch his games. D. both A and B C Elizabeth Blackwell was born in England in 1821, and moved to New York City when she was ten years old. One day she decided that she wanted to become a doctor. That was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. After writing many letters asking for admission(录取) to medical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia. She was so determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get money for the cost of schooling.‎ ‎ In 1849, after graduation from medical school, she decided to further her education in Paris. She wanted to be a surgeon(外科医师) , but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea.‎ Upon returning to the United States, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. By 1857 Elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and children Besides being the first woman physician and founding her own hospital , she also set up the first medical school for women.‎ ‎28.

Eilzabeth Blackwell spent most of her life in _______.‎ ‎ A. England B. Paris C. the United States D. New York City D Have you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing when you are happy.‎ Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.‎ Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims (声称) as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your house is your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.‎ If so, you have actually frightened the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting (筑巢) season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.‎ ‎32.Some scientists believe that most of the time bird’s singing is actually ________.‎ ‎ A. an expression of happiness B. a way of warning ‎ C. an expression of anger D. a way of greeting ‎33.Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?‎ A. Because they want to invite more friends.‎ B. Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.‎ C. Because they want to find outsiders around.‎ D. Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.‎ ‎34.How does the writer explain birds’ singing?‎ A.By comparing birds with human beings. B. By reporting experiment results.‎ C. By describing birds’ daily life. D. By telling a bird’s story.‎ ‎35.What does the underline word “screaming” in paragraph 4 mean?‎ A. 哭喊声 B. 令人惊愕的 C. 尖叫声 D. 尖叫的 第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ All over the world people enjoy sports. Sports help to keep people healthy and happy, and to live longer.‎ ‎ 36 They buy tickets or turn on their TVs to watch the games. Often they get very excited when their player or team wins.‎ ‎ 37 Football, for example, has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers. What fun it is to jump into a pool or lake, whether in China, Egypt or Italy! 38 Think how many lovers to skate or ski in Japan, Norway or Canada.‎ Some sports or games go back thousands of years, like running or jumping. Chinese wushu, for example, has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new. Neither one is a hundred years old yet 39 Waterskiing is one of the newest in the family of sports.‎ People from different countries may not be able to understand each other, but after a game together they often become good friends. 40 One learns to fight hard but fight fair, to win without pride and to lose with grace.‎ A．And think of people in cold countries. ‎ B．Sports help to train a person’s character.‎ C．Not a few people participate in different sports competitions themselves.‎ D．Many people like to watch others play games.‎ E．People aren’t inventing new sports or games.‎ F．Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere take part in them.‎ G．People are inventing new sports or games all the time.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A, B, C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ ‎ I spent two months with an American family last year when I studied in America. It is said, “The best house is in the U.S.A., the best wife is in Japan， and the best food is in China. ”So I took 41 and pleasure to 42 “the best food” for my American family. Each day, regardless of my poor skill of cooking, I performed my play in 43 way: changing the dishes` colour, the meat`s type or the soup`s style. Thus, my American friends could discover the 44 of eating Chinese food. Because of my“45” job, I was often rewarded by their 46 of  appreciation such  as  “very  tasty”, “excellent”, etc. But the joke was here: yesterday, I cooked Sichuan－style 47 for dinner. I was 48 at my achievement. When all the family members arrived at the table, they first looked 49 at the fish, then looked at me. “Why do all the fish have their 50?” they asked, “It’s horrible!” Horrible or beautiful? I don’t know. But I 51 know that fish heads are delicious. The 52 is the best part of fish; in 53 only the respectable guest can have the special 54 of enjoying it.  Another 55 thing is:the American friends often said to me“ 56 ”as they 57 fruits or other things. According to Chinese tradition, I would simply smile in answer to their kindness 58 actually helping myself to any of the food. 59, I said “help yourself” to them whenever I brought home fruits. Dear me, no matter how much or how often I brought home food, as long as it was nice to their taste, they 60 hesitated（犹豫） to use their hands to “help themselves” until all was finished.‎ ‎41.

Some of us think it good to own a car. Firstly，it’s a convenient，fast and comfortable means of transportation tool. You can go to a lot of places at any time. Secondly，it shows that people are becoming richer，and the country stronger. It also makes businesses and industries develop faster. Others have different opinions. They think that cars give off waste gas and pollute the environment. Too many cars will have some bad effects，such as more accidents. Besides，parking cars is another big problem. Maybe people should think carefully before they buy a car.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ Yours truly， ‎ Zhaxi ‎
