All are fitted with state of the art technology including the latest audio and visual equipment.

Founded by Whitbread in the 18th century, the Brewery provides a historical setting for a wide variety of events and conferences. The largest conference room can seat 1,000 guests, making it most suitable for major conferences, award dinners and fashion shows. Central Hall Westminster Built in 1912 and located just across the road from the Houses of Parliament, the splendid Central Hall Westminster has 22 function rooms and can seat up to 2,160 people in its auditorium ( 会 堂 ). Visitors can explore the inside of the Edwardian structure for free, with guided tours operating daily from 9:30 am to 5:00 pm.

Kings Place Opened in 2008, Kings Place offers conference organizers two auditoriums, two art galleries and a wide selection of event spaces with great views over Regent's Canal. Bathed in natural light, the Battlebridge Room can be split into two using a movable wall, creating a room for presentations and the other for refreshments and registration (登记).

So I moved from central Illinois to Shelbina, Missouri, and bought 236 acres for $6,000. The land was near a dirt road and was half farmland and half trees, with an old house that had no running water or electricity. Obviously, it was not what you'd call a perfect farm. But it was mine. I was alone for the first time in my life, and I found it liberating. My days were filled from dawn until dusk with plowing and planting corn. Dinnertime came and went, and I barely remembered to eat. I wouldn't say I was a great success at farming in Missouri. However, when I went to the store to buy some tools, I met a nice woman named Claudette working behind the counter. I also ran into her at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Shelbina each week. I found out later that her manager kept asking her about "that tall boy from Illinois living out in the country in an old house with no water, no electricity and no housekeeper." Claudette and her sister soon visited my farm and put up some curtains. To show my appreciation, I took Claudette out for a ride in my truck. We married in 1954 and have now been together for more than 62 years! I later sold the Missouri farm for a $3,500 profit and bought 40 acres in Illinois. For many reasons, buying the Missouri farm was a good idea. I will always value memories of owning the farm and meeting my beloved. 25．Why did the author buy the Missouri farm? A．To marry a nice girl. B．To live a free life. C．To have his own land. D．To earn a good profit. 26．What was Claudette when the author met her? A．A manager. B．A storekeeper. C．A housekeeper. D．A shop assistant. 27．We can learn from the passage that the Missouri house ________. A．was well furnished B．led to a happy marriage C．covered 40 acres D．made a successful farmer C Some people say global English is no longer just controlled by British or American English, but is running free and developing unique (独一无二的) local forms. Can you figure out the following terms? “I like your smile, but unlike you put your shoes on my face.” This is a way of saying “Keep off the grass.” Or “people mountain, people sea”， which means “very crowded”． These examples are what we call Chinglish. When it comes to Chinglish, if all you know is “good good study, day day up”， you will be considered “out man”． Nowadays, more Chinglish words have been created, for example, a Chinese idiom is translated as “smilence”， a combination of the English words smile and silence. Chinglish usually offers a humorous look at the misuse of the English language in Chinese street signs, products, and advertising. They are favored by some English－speaking tourists and visitors. Dominic Swire has been living in Beijing for a couple of years. He said, “I think many Chinese people complain about the Chinglish and badly translated English. But you know, sometimes for us foreigners, it's actually quite charming to see them. I think if the translations of English in China were all perfect, then something would be lost from the Chinese culture.” However, Chinglish will probably become a “cultural relic”in the near future. Beijing has made a comprehensive plan to improve foreign language services and eliminate Chinglish within five years. “It is very ridiculous(可笑的) to see Chinglish on the signs in some scenic spots. And they are a kind of barriers for communication between Chinese and people from other countries，” a Beijinger said. Some Chinese university experts side with Chinglish. They argue that English has absorbed elements from other languages such as French and Spanish in its growth, and now it's Chinese's turn. 28. What can we call Chinglish? A．The English words which get new Chinese meanings. B．The Chinese words which are difficult to translate. C．The words combining English vocabulary and Chinese grammar. D．The local words preventing foreigners to learn Chinese well. 29．Who will be called “out man” according to the passage? A．A person who knows little about Chinglish words. B．A student who hates learning foreign languages. C．A tourist who fails to understand local translations. D．An expert who doesn't support Chinglish at all. 30．What is Swire's attitude to Chinglish? A．It can show the humour of Chinese. B．It will attract more foreign tourists. C．It helps him to learn Chinese well. D．It seems part of Chinese culture. 31．Chinglish is likely to become a “cultural relic” in Beijing because ________． A．it has become a unique bridge between Chinese and English B．Chinglish is a chance to enrich Chinese and English C．it improves the understanding between Chinese and foreigners D．Beijing is determined to get rid of Chinglish signs D Blowing bubbles is fun! The best thing about bubbles is that it's easy to make your own bubble solution(溶液). You can make as much as you want and blow as many bubbles as you'd like. Do you know the secret of making bigger and stronger bubbles? Do just as follows: Measure 6 cups of water into one container, then pour I cup of dish soap into the water and slowly stir (搅拌) it until the soap is mixed in. Try not to let bubbles form while you stir. Measure 1/4 cup of corn syrup and add it to the container. Stir the solution until it is mixed together. You can use the solution right away, but to make even better bubbles, put the cap on the container and let your super bubble solution sit overnight. The soap mixture on the outside of a bubble is actually made of three very thin layers: soap, water, and another layer of soap. A bubble forms when the water between the layers of soap turns into gas. The corn syrup mixes with the soap to make it thicker. The thicker skin of the bubbles keeps the water from evaporating(蒸发) quickly, so they last longer. It also makes them stronger, so you can blow bigger bubbles. Dip a bubble wand or straw into the mixture, slowly pull it out, wait a few seconds, and then blow. If you don't have a ready made "bubble wand", you can make your own bubble wand by cutting off the end of the bulb of a plastic pipet (移液管). Dip the cut end in the solution and blow through the narrow end. You can also make a circle out of thin wire or pipe cleaner. Just twist a round end on your wire to blow the bubbles through. You can even make it heart shaped, square or use other shapes if you're clever enough to bend it well. 32．The text is written to ________. A．argue B．advertise C．entertain D．instruct 33．The secret of making bigger and stronger bubbles lies in ________. A．soap B．corn syrup C．water D．straw 34．The bubble wand is used to ________. A．blow bubbles B．mix the solution C．measure soap D．shape wires 35．What can we infer from Paragraph 4? A．More soap, more bubbles. B．Less water, better bubbles. C．Thicker layers, more bubbles. D．Stronger skin, bigger bubbles. 第二节 (共 5 小题) 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。 How to Get Water to Survive in the Woods Have you ever been on a hike in the woods admiring the great views, and suddenly found yourself completely alone and lost? ____36____ But surviving alone in the wild is generally a matter of common sense, patience, and wisely using the gifts that nature provides.

I'm writing in reply to your letter asking me about comic talk. Comic talk is a traditional Chinese way of entertainment. It's usually performed by two people but it can also be played by one person or more than two. The performers talk about topics of daily life in humorous ways. Comic talks not only amuse and refresh us, but also get us thinking about life. Many foreigners learn Chinese comic talk because it is a good way to learn spoken Chinese and gives them a better understanding of Chinese culture. So I'm delighted that you are interested in it and I hope you can enjoy learning it. Best wishes! Yours, Li Hua
