Where can we find this passage?‎ A. In a newspaper B. In a magazine C. On the internet D. On a notice board B How to eat healthfully can be especially complex for working women who often have neither the desire nor the time to cook for themselves (or for anyone else )．Registered dietitian Barbara Morrissey suggests that a few simple rules can help.‎ ‎“Go for nutrient-dense foods,” she suggests, “foods that contain a multiple of nutrient. For example, select whole wheat bread as a breakfast food, rather than coffee cake. Or drink orange juice rather than orange drink, which contains only a small percentage of real juice—the rest is largely colored sugar water. You just can't compare the value of these foods, the nutrient－dense ones are so superior.” she emphasizes.‎ Morrissey believes that variety is not only the spice of life, it's the foundation of a healthful diet. Diets which are based on one or two foods are not only almost ‎ impossible to keep up the strength，they can be very harmful, she says, because nutrients aren't supplied in enough amounts or balance.‎ According to Morrissey，trying to find a diet that can cure your illnesses，or make you superwoman is a fruitless search. “As women，many of us are too concerned with staying thin,” she says，and “we believe that vitamins are some kind of magic cure to replace food.”‎ ‎“ We need carbohydrates, protein and fat－they are like the wood in the fireplace. The vitamins and minerals are like the match，the spark，for the fuel,” she explains. “ We need them all, but in a very different proportions（部分）. And if the fuel isn't there, the spark is useless.”‎ ‎19. From the first paragraph we know that working women_______‎ A．think cooking is especially complicated B．do not share the same views with registered dietitians C．are busy and not interested in cooking D．are likely to eat healthfully ‎20. Orange juice is different from orange drink because_______‎ A．it contains only a small percentage of real juice B．it is natural, nutritious and prepared from real oranges C．it is largely orange－colored sugar water D．it produces nothing but calories ‎21. In Paragraph 4, “ a fruitless search” means “ _______”．‎ A．an effort with no results B．a search for a diet without fruits C．a research on fruitless diet D．a diet serving as medicine ‎22. By saying “ if the fuel isn't there, the spark is useless.” the author means “_______”．‎ A．carbohydrates，protein and fat are enough to support a human life B．vitamins and minerals are almost of no value C．carbohydrates, protein and fat are as important as vitamins and minerals D．without carbohydrates, protein and fat，vitamins and minerals are of no use ‎ C People aren’t walking any more---if they can figure out a way to avoid it.‎ I felt superior about this matter until the other day I took my car to mail a small parcel. The journey is a matter of 281 steps. But I used the car. And I wasn’t in any hurry, either. I had merely become one more victim of a national sickness: motorosis. It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune(免疫的), for I was born in the ‎ tradition of going to places on my own two legs. At that time, we regarded 23 miles a good day’s walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours a sign of strength and skill. It did not occur to us that walking was a hardship. And the effect was lasting. When I was 23 years old I raced –and beat—a teenage football player the 168 steps up the Stature of Liberty.‎ Such enterprises today are regarded by many middle-aged persons as bad for the heart. But a well-known British physician, Sir Adolphe Abrahams, pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need proper exercise. A Person who avoids exercise is more likely to have illnesses than one who exercises regularly. And walking is an ideal form of exercise--- the most familiar and natural of all.‎ It was Henry Thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot. The man walking can learn the trees, flowers, insects, birds and animals, the significance of seasons and the very feel of himself as a living creature in a living world. He cannot learn in a car.‎ The car is a convenient means of transport, but we have made it our way of life. Many people don’t dare to approach Nature any more; to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat. To them security is a steel river thundering on a concrete road. And much of their thinking takes place while waiting for the traffic light to turn green.‎ I say that the green of forests is the mind’s best light. And none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting.‎ ‎23. What was life like when the author was young?‎ A. People usually went around on foot. ‎ B. people often walked 23 miles a day C. People used to climb the Statue of Liberty. ‎ D. people considered a ten-hour walk as a hardship.‎ ‎24. The author mentions Henry Thoreau to prove that A. middle-aged people like getting back to nature B. walking in nature helps enrich one’s mind C. people need regular exercise to keep fit D. going on foot prevents heart disease ‎25. What is compared to “a steel river” in Paragraph6?‎ A. A queue of cars B. A ray of traffic light C. A flash of lightning D. A stream of people ‎26. What is the author’s intention of writing this passage?‎ A. To tell people to reflect more on life. B. To recommend people to give up driving C. To advise people to do outdoor activities D. To encourage people to return to walking ‎ D GIANYAR, Bali—The resort island of Bali is known for a lot of things—beaches, artists, flowing rice paddies—but not guitars. Slowly but surely, Wayan Tuges is changing that.‎ ‎ A wood sculptor who works from a small workshop in one of the artisan-filled villages of central Bali, Mr. Tuges has produced hundreds of custom-made guitars over the past several years which have become collectors’ items across the world. Their success—some sell for as much as $8,800—has also shown how the entrepreneurs(企业家) even in remote corners of the world can connect to the global economy online—especially with a little luck.‎ ‎ Mr. Tuges's achievement is to have added that stringed instruments (弦乐器) to part of the rich, traditional Balinese musical scene. Mr. Tuges didn't even know how to play the guitar, much less make one.‎ ‎ But that began to change a few years ago, when Mr. Tuges was visited out of the blue by a Montreal businessman and musician named Danny Fonfeder, who was looking for a craftsman that he hoped could make ornate guitars in Bali during a business trip in Asia. He brought a cheap guitar for Mr. Tuges to copy. ‎ ‎ "I managed to make something that looked like a guitar, but it didn't make any sound," said the 60-year old Mr. Tuges, who learned the art of sculpturing from his father at a young age. ‎ ‎ Spellbound by the carvings on the guitar, Mr. Fonfeder quickly saw an opportunity to sell the guitars overseas. To fine-tune Mr. Tuges's work, he brought an American luthier—someone who makes stringed instruments—named George Morris to Bali to teach his soon-to-be business partner in the fine art of making a great guitar. ‎ ‎ "I'm forever in debt to Danny and George." Mr. Tuges said in a recent interview at his workshop.‎ ‎ It didn't take long for the men to get their alliance off the ground. Mr. Tuges not only mastered the craftsmanship but also started to teach his relatives, including his son, to make guitars with their hands—a method they still employ today, even though computerized precision tools are available. The only digital instruments they use are tuners.‎ ‎ 27. Who's Wayan Tuges?‎ ‎ A. An investor in Bali. B. An entrepreneur from Canada.‎ ‎ C. A wood carver in Bali. D. A salesman of guitars.‎ ‎ 28. The underlined phrase "out of the blue" means .‎ ‎ A. unexpected B. in the open air C. scheduled D. in the field ‎ 29. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?‎ ‎ A. Wayan Tuges was ready to meet Danny Fonfeder at the very beginning.‎ ‎ B. Wayan Tuges succeeded in making his first guitar.‎ ‎ C. At age 60, Wayan Tuges started learning sculpturing from his father.‎ ‎ D. George Morris came to Bali to guide Wayan Tuges.‎ ‎30. What's the best title of the passage?‎ ‎ A. A Brief Introduction to Bali, a Resort Island.‎ ‎ B. Master Carver Adds Guitars to Bali's Rich Culture.‎ ‎ C. What Wayan Tuges Has Achieved at 60.‎ ‎ D. Wayan Tuges Taught His Relatives to Make Guitars.‎ 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。‎ Urbanization Until relatively recently, the vast majority of human beings lived and died without ever seeing a city. The first city was probably founded no more than 5,500 years ago. ‎31 In fact, nearly everyone lived on farms or in tiny rural villages. It was not until the 20th century that Great Britain became the first urban society in history—a society in which the majority of people live in cities and do not farm for a living. ‎ Britain was only the beginning. 32 The process of urbanization—the migration (迁徙) of people from the countryside to the city—was the result of modernization, which has rapidly transformed how people live and where they live.‎ In 1990, fewer than 40% of Americans lived in urban areas. Today, over 82% of Americans live in cities. Only about 2% live on farms. 33 ‎ Large cities were impossible until agriculture became industrialized. Even in advanced agricultural societies, it took about ninetyfive people on farms to feed five people in cities. _34 Until modern times, those living in cities were mainly the ‎ ruling elite（精英）and the servants, laborers and professionals who served them. Cities survived by taxing farmers and were limited in size by the amount of surplus food that the rural population produced and by the ability to move this surplus from farm to city.‎ Over the past two centuries, the Industrial Revolution has broken this balance between the city and the country. 35 Today, instead of needing ninetyfive farmers to feed five city people, one American farmer is able to feed more than a hundred nonfarmers.‎ A．That kept cities very small.‎ B．The rest live in small towns.‎ C．The effects of urban living on people should be considered.‎ D．Soon many other industrial nations became urban societies.‎ E．But even 200 years ago, only a few people could live in cities.‎ F．Modernization drew people to the cities and made farmers more productive.‎ G．Modern cities have destroyed social relations and the health of human beings.‎ ‎ 第二部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题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。‎ One of the easiest things in the world is to become a fault-finder. However, life can be 36 when you are not busy finding fault with it.‎ Several years ago I ‎37 a letter from seventeen-year-old Kerry, who described herself as a world-class fault-finder, almost always 38 by things. People were always doing things that annoyed her, and 39 was ever good enough. She was highly self-critical and also found fault with her friends. She became a really 40 person.‎ Unfortunately, it took a horrible accident to change her 41 . Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash. What made it almost 42 to deal with was that the day before the _ 43 , Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her 44 of boyfriends, the way she was living, the way she related to her mother, and various other things she felt she needed to 45 . It wasn't until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became 46 her habit of finding fault. Very quickly, she learned to appreciate life rather than to 47 everything so harshly ( 刻薄) . She was able to transfer her new wisdom to other parts of her 48 as well.‎ Perhaps most of us aren't as extreme at fault-finding. 49 when we're honest, we can be sharply 50 of the world. I'm not suggesting you 51 problems, or that you pretend things are 52 than they are, but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are — 53 most of the time, and especially when it's not a really big 54 .‎ Train yourself to "bite your tongue" and with a little 55 , you'll get really good at letting things go. And when you do, you'll get back your enthusiasm and love for life.‎ ‎36. A. lonely B. great C. quiet D. uneasy ‎37. A. received B. answered C. expected D. rejected ‎38.

Co-housing complexes are popping up across the country. For many people, this way of life is a relief to the busy modern lifestyle. A co-housing community has 60 (private) owned houses and shared land. There is often a “common house” with a kitchen and dining room, meeting room, and maybe a workshop of library or music room. About 25 co-housing communities 61 (build) in recent years, and 150 more are planned.‎ A co-housing complex is a place 62 residents shop, cook, and eat together. Residents of a co-housing complex like its sense of shared community. Children have other kids to play 63 ， 64 many families like. Other residents like the feeling of living in a “ village”.

Many factors account for the pollution, yet nothing but human behavior is the main reason. With no effective measures taken by the government, many factories pour amounts of waste water into rivers without treating it.‎ Obviously, drinking heavily polluted water will do great harm to human health, in which case many people are faced with potential risks of sickness or even death.‎ To avoid the tragedy, something practical should be done from now on. First of all, the government should take measures to deal with water pollution seriously. What’s more, we suggest some popular programmes be produced to teach people, especially the owners of factories, how to avoid pollution. Only by raising people’s awareness of the environmental protection can we enjoy clean water and a healthy life.‎
