If you want to find a part-time job, you will look at________.‎ A. For Rent B. Help Wanted C. For Sale D. Lost B Did you ever look up at the moon and think you saw a man’s face there? When the moon is round and full, the shadows(影子) of the moon mountains and the lines of the moon valleys sometimes seem to show a giant nose and mouth and eyes. At least, some people think so.‎ ‎　　If there were a man on the moon—instead of mountains and valleys that just look like the face of a man—what would he be like?‎ ‎　　He would not be like anyone you know. He would not be like anyone anybody knows.‎ ‎　　If the man on the moon were bothered by too much heat or cold the way Earth people are, he could not stay on the moon.‎ ‎　　The moon becomes very, very hot. It becomes as hot as boiling water. And the moon becomes very, very cold. It becomes colder than ice.‎ ‎　　Whatever part of the moon the sun shines on is hot and bright. The rest of the moon is cold and dark.‎ ‎　　If the man on the moon had to breathe to stay alive, he couldn’t live on the moon because there’s no air there. He’d have to carry an oxygen tank, as astronauts do. There’s no food on the moon, either. Nothing grows—not even weeds（grass）.‎ ‎　　If the man on the moon liked to climb mountains, he would be very happy. There are many high places there, such as the raised land around the holes, or craters(火山口), of the moon. Some of these rims are as tall as Earth’s highest mountains.‎ ‎　　But if the man on the moon liked to swim, he would be unhappy. There is no water on the moon—just dust and rock.‎ ‎　　When you think of what it’s like on the moon, you may wonder why it interests our scientists. One reason is that the moon is Earth’s nearest neighbor—it is the easiest place in space to get to.‎ ‎　　Going back and forth between the moon and Earth, astronauts will get a lot of practice in space travel. Things learned on moon trips will be of great help to astronauts who later take long, long trips to some of the planets.‎ ‎　　Scientists are also interested in the moon because it has no air. The air that surrounds Earth cuts down the view of the scientists who look at the stars through telescopes. A telescope on the moon would give them a clearer, closer view of the stars.‎ ‎29. What is the reason why our scientists are interested in the moon?‎ A．The moon is beautiful.‎ B．The moon is different from the earth.‎ C．The moon is the easiest place in space to get to and it has no air, unlike Earth.‎ D．The moon is Earth’s nearest neighbor—it is the easiest place in space to get to.‎ ‎30. The underlined word “rim” in the Paragraph 8 means _________.‎ A．ball B．hill C．height D. round edge ‎ ‎31. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?‎ ‎ A. The climate on the moon is quite different from that on the earth.‎ B. Traveling between the moon and Earth will do much good to astronauts.‎ C. There is some food and weeds on the moon, even though there’s no air.‎ D. It is clearer to look at the stars through telescopes on the moon than on earth.‎ ‎32. What is the main thought of the passage?‎ A. .A telescope on the Moon would help scientists have a clearer, closer sight of the stars.‎ B. There may be human beings on the moon.‎ C. If there were a man on the Moon, there would be many similarities between the man on the Moon and on the Earth.‎ D. We can learn much from research on the Moon C As societies develop, their members start to see things not so much according to what they need, but according to what they want. When people have enough money, these wants become demands.‎ Now, it' s important for the managers in a company to understand what their customers want if they are going to develop effective marketing strategies (策略). There are various ways of doing this. One way at supermarkets, for example, is to interview customers while they're doing their shopping. They can be asked what they prefer to buy and then the results of the research can be studied. This provides information on which to base future marketing strategies. It' s also quite normal for top managers from department stores to spend a day or two each month visiting stores and mixing freely with the public, as if they were ordinary customers, to get an idea of how customers act.‎ Another way to get information from customers is to give them something. For example, some fast food restaurants give away tickets in magazines or on the street that permit customers to get part of their meal for nothing. As well as being a good way of attracting customers into the restaurants to spend their money, it also allows the managers to get a feel for where to attract customers and which age-groups to attract.‎ Another strategy used at some well-known parks such as Disneyland is for top managers to spend at least one day in their work, touting the park dressed as Mickey Mouse or something like that. This provides them with a perfect chance to examine the scene and watch the customers without being noticed.‎ ‎33. The text is designed for _______‎ ‎ A. customers B. salesmen C. researchers D. mangers ‎34. Which of the following can help managers get useful information?‎ ‎ A. Visiting customers themselves. B. Giving customers free food on the street.‎ ‎ C. Visiting parks as ordinary customers. D. Asking customers questions at supermarkets.‎ ‎35. What does the word "this" underlined in the last sentence refer to?‎ ‎ A. Visiting Disneyland. B. Dressing up and walking around. ‎ ‎ C. Wearing attractive clothes. D. Acting Mickey Mouse. ‎ ‎36. The main idea of the text is _________.‎ ‎ A. how to do market research ‎ B. how to develop marketing strategies ‎ C. how to find out customers' social needs D. how to encourage customers to spend more money D The need to feed a growing population is putting much pressure on the world's supply of water. With 97% of the world's water too salty to be drunk or used in agriculture, the worldwide supply of water needs careful management, especially in agriculture. Although the idea of a water shortage seems strange to someone fortunate enough to live in a high rainfall country, many of the world's agricultural industries experience constant water shortages. 　　Although dams can be built to store water for agricultural use in dry areas and dry seasons, the costs of water redistribution are very high. Not only is there the cost of the engineering itself, but there is also an environmental cost to be considered. Where valleys(山谷)are flooded to create dams, houses are lost and wildlife homes destroyed. Besides, water may flow easily through pipes to fields, but it cannot be transported from one side of the world to the other. Each country must therefore rely on the management of its own water to supply its farming requirements. 　　This is particularly troubling for countries with agricultural industries in areas dependent on irrigation. In Texas, farmers' overuse of irrigation water has resulted in a 25% reduction of the water stores. In the Central Valley area of southwestern USA, a huge water engineering project provided ‎ water for farming in dry valleys, but much of the water use has been poorly managed. 　　Saudi Arabia's attempts to grow wheat in desert areas have seen the pumping of huge quantities of irrigation water from underground reserves.  Because there is no rainfall in these areas, such reserves can only decrease, and it is believed that fifty years of pumping will see them run dry. 37. From the first two paragraphs we learn that________. 　A. much of the world's water is available for use 　B. people in high rainfall countries feel lucky C. water can be easily carried through pipes across the world　‎ D. the costs of water redistribution should be considered 38. Which of the following is TRUE? 　A. The water stores in Texas have been reduced by 75%. 　B. Most industries in the world suffer from water shortages. 　C. Good management of water use resulted from the project in the Central Valley. 　D. The underground water in Saudi Arabia might run out in 50 years. 39. What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows? 　A. Steps to improving water use management. 　B. Ways to reduce the costs of building dams. 　C. Measures to deal with worldwide water shortages. 　D. Approaches to handling the pressure on water supply. 40. The text is mainly about________. 　A. water supply and increasing population B. water use management and agriculture 　C. water redistribution and wildlife protection ‎ D. water shortages and environmental protection 第二节 There is an English saying, "_____41_______." Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. ‎ ‎_____42_____.‎ Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. ______43_______. Laughter increases blood pressure, makes the heart beat quicker and makes people breathe deeper; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial. ‎ ‎_______44______. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group that tolerated (忍耐) the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemical in the brain which diminishes both stress and pain. ‎ ‎ As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they help to improve their patients' condition by encouraging them to laugh. ______45_______.‎ A. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter B. Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body.‎ C. They have found that laughter really can improve people's health.‎ D. Laughter is the best medicine.‎ E. Laughter can prolong people’s life.‎ F. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise.‎ G. Although laughter helps cure the disease, doctors still can not put this theory into clinic practice.‎ 四、英语知识运用 第一节：完型填空（共20小题，每小题1.5分，共30分）‎ Massive Open Online Courses are also called MOOCs.

What's __60__ in online education is face-to-face interaction，for example，the teaching of English is a face-to-face __61__ practice.
