It is based at Broadcasting House in London.‎ The BBC is controlled by some governors chosen by the government, but these people have freedom and the government can’t interfere（干扰）. That is, the BBC is supposed not to be the mouthpiece（代言人）of the government. It has to be as fair as possible in giving radio and television time to, for example, political parties and religious groups.‎ There is a kind of interesting service in British-rental services. Many people prefer to rent their television sets instead of buying them.‎ The rent for a black and white set is about 80 pence a week . The rent of a color set is more than twice that of a black and white set. If the sets go wrong, people can have them repaired free of charge or replaced immediately.‎ Everyone has to buy a yearly license, since there is no advertising on BBC radio or television. It is from the sale of licenses that the BBC gets most of its money. A license for a black and white set costs 8 pounds, and for a colour set 18 pounds a year.‎ There are four specialized radio channels, which broadcast different kinds of programmes. Radio I is mainly pop music．Radio 2 deals with light music, sports and other programmes. Radio 3 broadcasts serious music, talks on serious subjects etc．News ‎ broadcasts are mainly given by Radio 4.‎ There are special programmes for Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales, and certain parts of England．It also broadcasts programmes about Britain—in many different languages as well as in English to all parts of the world．‎ ‎1.

But in fact the umbrella was not invented as protection against the rain. Its first use was as a shade against the sun.‎ Nobody knew who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, back in the eleventh century BC. ‎ We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its uses: it became a symbol of honor and power. In the Far East in ancient times. the umbrella was allowed to be used only by those in high office or by royal people such as the kings or queens.‎ In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. The umbrella ‎ was in common use in ancient Greece. but it is believed that the first people in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans. During the middle ages in Europe. the use of the umbrella almost disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again It became a symbol of power.‎ Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn't until the twentieth century that the umbrellas for women began to be made in all kinds of colors.‎ ‎4. Ancient people first used umbrellas as __________ .‎ A. a symbol of honor B a symbol of power C. protection against the sun D. protection against the rain ‎ ‎5. According to the passage, the umbrella was probably first used in accident ‎ A. Babylon B. China C. Egypt D. Rome ‎6. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?‎ A. The ancient Greeks used the umbrella in their daily life.‎ B. Europeans hardly used the umbrella during the middle ages.‎ C. The umbrellas for woman were made colorful in ancient times.‎ D. The style of the umbrella hasn't changed a lot since it was invented ‎7. What is the passage mainly about?‎ A. The sales of the umbrella. B. The history and the use of the umbrella.‎ C. The invention of the umbrella. D. The differences among umbrellas.‎ C ‎ “Sorry, but I don’t agree with you…” This is usually followed by unbearable silence and angry tears. I’ve always found it difficult to disagree with someone because I don’t want to lose a friend. I’ve found it even harder to accept it when someone disagrees with me, because my ego (自尊心) is hurt.‎ Before the other person gets a chance to explain why she disagrees with me, my usual response would be, “If you aren’t able to see my point of view, then what you think isn’t worth my time or consideration, either.” But now I’ve come to realize that when a friend disagrees with me, sometimes she is simply saying, “I don’t agree with the way things are done.” She still respects me as a person, and ‎ is only pointing out a better way to look at a matter. However, there may be times when my friend disagrees with me because I’m against the truth. That’s when I need to listen to what she says.‎ I’ve learned that for me one way to help my friend is to be open and honest with the other to voice my thoughts and listen to the other carefully. While we can’t control how a person will respond to our views, we must learn to disagree with our friends in love. We will never feel that we are better than the other person. And that will help us to be less emotional, and more objective in the way we express our opinions. In the same way, we can also stay open to feedback (反馈) from others, knowing that our friends may be correcting us in love.‎ Good friendships build each other up, sometimes through disagreements and honest opinions. Though I don’t like being disagreed with, I’m starting to see the value of such disagreements.‎ ‎8. The author has found it difficult to disagree with someone because _______.‎ A. he is a friendly person B. he usually hides his ideas C. he has no mind of his own D. he wants to keep the friendship ‎9. When a friend disagreed with him, the author used to _______.‎ A. be unhappy B. argue with the friend C. break up with the friend D. explain things calmly ‎10. The author will listen to a friend when _______.‎ A. he is against the truth B. he doesn’t tell the truth C. he is respected by the friend D. he does things in the wrong way ‎11. What does the author mainly talk about in the text?‎ A. How to keep friendship. B. How to avoid hurting a friend.‎ C. How to express disagreements. D. How to deal with disagreements.‎ D ‎ When I lived in Spain, some Spanish friends of mine decided to visit England by car. Before they left, they asked me for advice about how to find accommodation (住所). I suggested that they should stay at ‘bed and breakfast’ houses, because this kind of accommodation gives a foreign visitor a good chance to speak English with the family.‎ ‎ My friends listened to my advice, but they came back with some funny stories.‎ ‎ “We didn’t stay at bed and breakfast houses,” they said, “because we found that most families were away on holiday.” I thought this was strange. Finally I understood what had happened. My friends spoke little English, and they thought ‘VACANCIES’ meant ‘holidays’, because the Spanish word for ‘holidays” is ‘vacaciones’. So they did not go to house where the sign outside said ‘VACANCLES’, which in English means there are free rooms. Then my friends went to house where the sign said ‘NO VACANCLES’, because they thought this meant the people who owned the house were not away on holiday. But they found that these houses were all full. As a result, they stayed at hotels!‎ We laughed about this and about mistakes my friends made in reading other signs. In Spanish, the word ‘DIVERSION’ means fun. In English, it means that workmen are repairing the road, and that you must take a different road. When my friends saw the word ‘DIVERSION’ on a road sign, they thought they were going to have fun. Instead, the road ended in a large hole.‎ ‎  English people have problems too when they learn foreign languages. Once in Paris when someone offered me some more coffee, I said ‘Thank you’ in French. I meant that I would like some more, However , to my surprise the coffee pot was taken away! Later I found out that ‘Thank you’ in French means ‘No, thank you.’‎ ‎12. My Spanish friends wanted advice about ______.‎ A. finding places to stay in EnglandB. learning English ‎ C. driving their car on English roads       D. going to England by car ‎13. I suggested that they stay at bed and breakfast houses because ______.‎ ‎    A. it would be much cheaper than staying in hotels ‎  B. they would be able to practice their English ‎   C. it would be convenient for them to have dinner ‎   D. there would be no problem about finding accommodation there ‎14. “NO VACANCIES” in English means ______.‎ ‎    A. free rooms      B. not away on holiday     C. no free rooms   D.‎ ‎ holidays ‎15. When someone offered me more coffee and I said ‘Thank you’ in French, I ______.‎ ‎   A. didn’t really want any more coffee       B. wanted them to take the coffee pot away ‎  C. wanted to express my politeness D. really wanted some more coffee   ‎ 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。(注意：E涂AB： F 涂AC: G 涂AD )‎ As we know, everyone can make mistakes, but don’t worry about it.

A successful scientist is generally a good observer. He makes full 　21 　 of the facts he observes. He doesn’t accept ideas which are not 　22　 on obvious facts, and therefore 23 to accept authority(权威) as the only reason for truth. He always checks ideas 　24　 and makes experiments to prove them.‎ The rise of modern science may perhaps be considered to 　25　 as far back as the time of Roger Bacon, the wonderful philosopher（哲学家） of Oxford, who lived between the years 1214 and 1292.

Before Galileo, learned men believed that large bodies fell more 　31　 towards the earth than small ones, 　32　 Aristotle （亚里士多德）said so. But Galileo, going to the 　33　 of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, let fall two 　34　 stones and proved Aristotle was wrong. It was Galileo’s　35　 of going direct to Nature, and proving our 　36　 and theories by experiment, that has 37 all the discoveries of modern science.‎ What 38 those people good scientists? From the example of Galileo, we know 39 that successful scientists are those whose observations have 40 better results.‎ ‎21．‎ A.use B.sense C.speed D.trust ‎22．‎ A.relied B.based C.insisted D.centered ‎23．‎ A.refuses B.desires C.intends D.regrets ‎24．‎ A.casually B.carefully C.quickly D.privately ‎25．‎ A.date B.keep C.look D.come ‎26．‎ A.command B.suspect C.suggest D.conclude ‎27. ‎ A.in B.with C.on D.by ‎28．‎ A.brought B.discovered C.handled D.announced ‎29．‎ A.who B.when C.that D.where ‎30．‎ A.truths B.problems C.investigations D.subjects ‎31．‎ A.slowly B.rapidly C.lightly D.heavily ‎32．‎ A.although B.because C.when ‎ D.if ‎33．‎ A.place B.foot C.top D.ceiling ‎34．‎ A.big B.small C.similar D.unequal ‎35．‎ A.spirit B.skill C.theory D.wish ‎36．‎ A.plans B.opinions C.world D.ability ‎37．‎ A.led to B.turned to C.set up D.put forward ‎38．‎ A.makes B.prevents C.considers D.promises ‎39．‎ A.likely B.clearly C.naturally D.unwillingly ‎40．‎ A.foreseen B.rejected C.produced D.challenged 第二节单项选择（共10小题；每小题1分，共10分）‎ ‎41.
