Learning these skills changed your life forever and opened up new horizons. Learning about computers can be like learning how to ride a bike or drive a car. Once you have invested the time to master the skills, you will never go back to the old days. The new technology is simply too convenient and too powerful. ‎ Technological developments through the years have enabled us to do more with less effort. We have continuously looked for better ways of doing things. Each invention and new development has allowed us to extend our capabilities. Today we see one of the most dramatic technologies ever developed—the computer. It extends the capabilities of our minds. ‎ Computers have saved organizations millions of dollars. Furthermore, these same computer systems have opened up new opportunities that would have gone undiscovered or neglected. The computer may multiply what we can do, and the return on investment is high. The growth of computer usage is surprising. On the other hand, the computer can do serious damage. Invasion of privacy(侵犯隐私), fraud(欺诈), and computer-related mistakes are just a few shocking examples. ‎ The computer is like a double-edged sword. It has the ability to cut us free from some activities, but it can also cut deep into profits, personal privacy, and our society in general. How it is used is not a function of technology. It is strictly a function of how people decide to use or misuse this new technology. The choice is yours, and only through a knowledge of computer systems will you be able to avoid the dangers while enjoying the many, many benefits of the computer age. ‎ ‎36. The writer thinks learning about computers is like learning how to ride a bike or drive a car because _______. ‎ A. it is simple and practical B. it needs a lot of practice C. it leads people to new life experiences D. it takes much time to master the skills ‎37. According to the passage, computers bring people the following benefits except _______. ‎ A. avoiding mistakes B. saving money C. making money D. opening up opportunities ‎38. According to the writer, the bad effects of computers can be avoided if we _______. ‎ A. have sound knowledge of computer systems B. tell people not to misuse computers C. have strict rules over the use of computers D. make more investments in the technology ‎39. This passage is probably written for _______. ‎ A. computers B. computer producers C. computer learners D. computer programmers B In most towns today, you can see teenagers standing over electronic machines with flashing lights, shooting at spaceships from other planets and dropping bombs on strange monsters(恶魔). The machines have names like Space Warrior, Dark Invader and so on. It used to be believed that damage was done only to those strange visitors from outer space, but now it seems that they are striking back. ‎ Many teenagers like electronic games so much that they can’t stop playing. They spend hours tightly holding the joystick controls and constantly pressing buttons marked “fire”. They develop pains on their fingers because of the constant pressure. They play and play that the pains have no chance to cure properly. The rapid wrist movement required to guide the spaceship across the screen causes another problem: The muscles of the wrist and arm become so inflamed and swollen that they press against the bones. This condition is what doctors now call “Space Warrior’s Wrist”.‎ Other strange aches and pains also are likely to affect the elbows and shoulders. ‎ Another even more alarming problem is shown by the case of a 17-year-old girl which was recently reported in the British Medical Journal. She had been playing various kinds of electronic games for more than two hours a day. Her father repaired games and machines and she could use the cassettes and systems in his workshop as often as she liked. One day, after playing a game called Dark Invader, she lost consciousness(晕倒) and fell to the floor. ‎ Doctors who examined her found she was suffering from an unusual illness caused by lights ‎ flashing at a particular frequency. ‎ ‎40. Electronic games are found very popular with _______. ‎ A. people living in towns ‎ B. students studying in high schools C. girls working in their father’s workshops ‎ D. young people ‎ ‎41. “Space Warrior’s Wrist” is caused by _______. ‎ A. constantly pressing the buttons ‎ B. rapidly moving across the screen C. tightly holding the joystick controls ‎ D. inflamed and swollen muscles of the wrist ‎42. The case of a 17-year-old girl given by the writer shows that the writer _______. ‎ A. supports playing electronic games ‎ B. feels very sorry for the girl C. disagreed with young people’s playing electronic games D. feels worried about young people’s poor health ‎43. From the passage we can conclude that playing electronic games is _______. ‎ A. enjoyable and helpful to the study B. exciting but harmful to the health and study C. interesting but harmless to the eyes ‎ D. amusing and satisfying C Have you ever noticed the color of the water in a river or stream after a heavy rainfall? What do you think caused this change in color? It is soil that has been washed into the river from the riverbank or from t}le nearby fields．‎ Components of Soft Soil is made up of a number of layers（层），each having its own distinctive color and texture．The upper layer is known as the litter．It acts like a blanket．limiting temperature changes and reducing water loss．The topsoil layer is made up of small particles of rock mixed with rotten plant and animal matter called humus（腐殖质），which is black and gives the topsoil its dark ‎ color．This layer is usually rich in nutrients，oxygen，and water．Below the topsoil is the subsoil，a layer that contains more stones mixed with only small amounts of organic matter．This layer is lighter in color because of the lack of humus．Beneath the soil lies a layer of bedrock．‎ Soil forms from the bottom up．Over time bedrock is attacked by rain, wind，frost, and snow．It is gradually broken down into smaller particles in a process called weathering．Plants begin to grow，and rotten materials enrich the topsoil．Most of the soil in Eastern Canada, for example, was formed from weathered rock that was exposed when the ice disappeared l2,000 years ago．‎ Water Beneath the Soil Surface water collects and flows above the ground in lakes, ponds, and rivers．Once in the soil or rock, it is called groundwater．Gravity pulls groundwater through the soil in a process called percolation（渗透）．Eventually the water reaches a layer called the water table．Under this is bedrock through which water cannot percolate．‎ As water percolates downward, it dissolves organic matter and minerals from the soil and carries them to deeper layers．This causes a serious problem because plants require these nutrients for growth.‎ Soil pH Soil can be acidic．neutral．or basic．The pH of the soil is determined by the nature of the rock from which it was formed, and by the nature of the plants that grow and rot in it．‎ The acidity of rain and snow can lower the pH of the groundwater that enters the soil．By burning fossil fuels such as coal, oil and gasoline, humans have been contributing to higher levels of acidity in many soils．When fossil fuels are burned, gases are released into the air and then fall back to earth as acid rain．Acid soil increases problem of carrying nutrients to lower soil levels．As nutrients are removed，soil is less fertile．Plants grow more slowly in acidic soil, and also become easily attacked by diseases．‎ ‎44．The layer of soil that provides necessary nutrients for plant growth is called．‎ A．1itter B．topsoil C．humus D．subsoil ‎45．According to the text, which of the following is NOT true?‎ A．Soil forms from weathered rock on the earth surface．‎ B．The deeper layer of soil is darker in color than the surface soil．‎ C．Air pollution is partially responsible for acid soil．‎ D．Groundwater tends to carry away nutrients for plant growth．‎ ‎46．We can infer from the passage that the water table lies ．‎ A．between the topsoil layer and the subsoil layer B．in the subsoil layer above bedrock C．between the subsoil layer and bedrock D．in the bedrock layer beneath the subsoil ‎47．The underlined word “dissolve” is used to express the idea that organic matter and minerals from soil are ．‎ A．rushed away into the river B．cleaned and purified by water C．destroyed and carried away by water D．mixed with water and become part of it D When I asked my daughter which item she would keep: the phone, the car, the cooker, the computer, the TV, or her boyfriend, she said “the phone”. Personally, I could do without the phone entirely, which makes me unusual. Because the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology. ‎ Point 1 The telephone creates need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more traffic. My daughter comes home at 4:00 pm and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the very people she has been at school with all day. If the phone did not exist, would she have anything to talk about?‎ Point 2 The mobile phone means that we are never alone. “The mobile saved my life,” says Crystal Johnstone. She had an accident in her Volvo on the A45 between Otley and Skipton. ‎ Trapped inside, she managed to make the call that brought the ambulance(救护车) to her rescue. ‎ Point 3 The mobile phone removes our secret. It allows Manager of Haba Deutsch, Carl Nicolaisen, to ring his sales staff all round the world at any time of day to ask where they are, where they are going, and how their last meeting went. ‎ Point 4 The telephone separates us. Antonella Bramante in Rome says, “We worked in ‎ separate offices but I could see him through the window. It was easy to get his number. We were so near —but we didn't meet for the first two weeks!” ‎ Point 5  The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives. Today we can talk to several complete strangers simultaneously(同时地) on chat lines(at least my daughter does. I wouldn't know what to talk about). We can talk across the world. We can even talk to astronauts (if you know any) while they're space-walking. And, with the phone line hooked up to the computer, we can access(存取) the Internet, the biggest library on Earth. ‎ ‎48. How do you understand “ Point 1—The telephone creates the need to communicate” ?‎ A. People don't communicate without telephone. B. People communicate because of the creating of the telephone. C. People communicate more since telephone has been created. D. People communicate more because of more traffic. ‎ ‎49. Which points do you think best support the idea that phones improve people's life?‎ A. Point 3 and point 4 B. Point 1 and point 5‎ C. Point 1 and point 3 D. Point 2 and point 5‎ ‎50. It is possible to talk to several complete strangers simultaneously through _______.‎ A. the TV screen B. a fax machine C. the phone line hooked up to the computer D. a microphone 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。‎ Kids in the Kitchen Some experts serve up some of the factors that make cooking with kids a pleasure rather than a struggle．‎ ‎ 51 .‎ For obvious reasons, a grown-up needs to be in charge of the stove, sharp knives and electrical equipment．Dr．Colker advises parents to be watchful, even when their kids are involved in relatively safe tasks．The bottom line is to stay close by, and teach your kids to respect basic ‎ safety rules． ‎ Leave Time ‎ 52 _ When kids help, you’ll need extra time to teach them some skills．When you're in a hurry, give your kids tasks that don't require much guidance．As they get older and develop more skills, they will become wonderful helpers and even save your time! ‎ Go for Variety ‎ Our experts agree that children can enjoy more than the usual "kid food", such as chicken nuggets and pizza． 53 Sandra K. Nissenberg suggests exploring the produce passage in the supermarket and talking about the unusual fruits and vegetables you find．‎ Involve Kids in Clean-up and Table-setting Dr．Laura Colker reminds parents that preschoolers are eager to deal with grown-up tasks．They actually "enjoy the clean-up and table-setting activities", she says． 54 ．‎ They may also enjoy setting the table and counting the spoons．‎ Make Cooking a Learning Adventure Cooking helps kids develop a healthy interest in the lifelong challenge of eating nourishing （有营养的） , delicious meals．Kids learn about science when they heat or cool a mixture and observe how it changes． 55 And as they wait for the timer to ring, they develop a better understanding of the concept of time．‎ A．Most young children can easily handle simple kitchen equipment． ‎ B．Cooking with young children requires patience．‎ C．Measuring ingredients teaches kids about fractions （分数）．‎ D．Kids can and should help wash and dry the pots and pans．‎ E．Keep an Eye on Safety F．Stay Equipped G．To introduce new foods, involve your kids in menu planning and shopping.‎ 第三部分 写作（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）‎ 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。 文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除 或修改。‎ 增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（＾），并在其下面写出该加的词。‎ 删除：把多余的词用斜线〔〕划掉。‎ 修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。‎ 注意：1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；‎ ‎2.只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。‎ It is three years now since I graduate from No. 1 High School.

We all enjoyed this precious day greatly, remember the time we spent together and the people they were familiar with. It was a pity which some of us were not present as they had gone to abroad for further studies, but they called back or sent greeting card from different places.‎ 第二节 书面表达（满分25分）‎ 在英语课上，你喜欢你的老师授课时只用英语，还是英语、汉语兼用？ 某英语杂志社就此话题邀请中小学生发表看法。请你围绕“How do you prefer your English classes to be taught?

As we all know, a good learning ‎ environment is vital if we want to study English well. Classes taught in English provide students with such an environment. When English is the only language used in the classroom, students will have more opportunities to practice listening and speaking. Therefore, we will be able to learn more quickly.‎ ‎ However, there are also some problems with this teaching method. As we haven’t mastered enough English words, sometimes we may find it difficult to follow the teacher. Slow learners may even lose interest in English.‎ ‎ Practice makes perfect. To learn English well requires a lot of practice. So, I like my English classes to be taught completely in English.‎
