If it were up to me, the whole family would come to an end. The simple reason is that I am not good at doing anything more complicated than going out to get a haircut.‎ Here is what often happens:‎ ‎“I’m going out to get a haircut,” I announce.‎ ‎“While you’re out,” my wife says, “can you drop off the movie we rented last week? It’s due back today and I don’t want to pay a late charge.” “Sure,” I say.‎ Then she adds, “And stop at the post office for a book of stamps.” At last, I become nervous. I can handle a haircut and two errands. One more errand and I’m finished.‎ ‎“And stop at the vet’s to pick up a bag of dog food.”‎ It doesn’t matter if all of these places are in the same shopping center (they aren’t). Three errands are more than my brain can process (处理). So I write them down.‎ ‎“You mean you can’t remember three little errands?” my wife asks unbelievably.‎ Sadly, I can’t. I can remember to return the movie because it will be in the car. But with no visible (看得见的) reminders of my other two errands, I will almost certainly forget one of them.‎ I have to figure out where to go first. Should I get a haircut and then run my errands?‎ Should I stop at the post office first, get a haircut and then go to the video store and the vet’s on my way home?‎ Later in the day, I return home. With no small amount of pride, I hand her the book of stamps and the bag of dog food. She holds up a small box and says, “You forgot to give the movie back.”‎ It’s the story of my life: In one ear and out of the other.‎ ‎41. The use of the word “terrible” in Paragraph 3 shows that the writer ______.‎ ‎ A. does not love his wife B. has deep hatred for his wife ‎ C. gets frightened by his wife’s voice D. is anxious about his wife’s request ‎42. The wife asks her husband to do three things after his haircut because ______.‎ ‎ A. she thinks they are easy errands ‎ B. she likes to do housework at home ‎ C. she is not satisfied with her lazy husband ‎ D. she does not want to do these things herself ‎43. Why does the husband write down the three things?‎ ‎ A. He is serious. B. He is joking. C. He is forgetful. D. He is foolish.‎ ‎44. When the husband returns home, he is ______.‎ ‎ A. rather tired B. very happy C. rather proud D. very nervous ‎45. What is the structure of this story?‎ ‎ A. Topic-Example-Conclusion B. Topic-Comparison-Argument ‎ C. Example-Discussion-Conclusion D. Example-Discussion-Argument B ‎ COLUMBIA City, Indiana --- For Robin Smith, the hard plastics company where she works has become a worker’s paradise since the work week was cut from 40 to 30 hours last May with no pay cut.‎ ‎ “I love it. I like spending more time with my family and less time at work and getting paid for it,” said the mother of three.‎ ‎ Hard plastics is part of a growing number of US companies that are experimenting with the so-called “30/40” plan to replace the 40-hour working week.‎ ‎ Unlike in Europe, where cutting the working week is seen as a way to reduce unemployment, US companies see the 30/40 program mainly as a tool to increase productivity.‎ ‎ At the Hard Plastics plant, some 150 women employees work 6-hour daily for a 30-hour working week. And if they show up every day on time, they get a 10-hour bonus (奖金) for the week.‎ ‎ “But if you’re even one minute late, sorry Charlie, no bonus,” said Ronald Richey, the company’s president.‎ ‎ “We are in a very low unemployment market here, 2.5 per cent for the town. —Whitley,” said Ronald Richey. “The idea was to draw more quality applicants (申请者).‎ ‎ With 30/40, the company, which employs 325 people at two plants in Indiana and has yearly sales of $30 million, has greatly broadened its applicant pool. Some 40 people apply every week, among them many with long years of work experience or even college degrees.‎ ‎ The idea was first put forward by industrial psychologist (心理学家) Ron Healey. He said more and more companies were expressing interest in his program and were even testing it.‎ ‎46. According to the text, what is the 30/40 program?‎ ‎ A. An employee works 30 hours a week with 40 hour’s pay.‎ ‎ B. An employee works for 10 hours extra every week and gets paid.‎ ‎ C. A woman employee with a family has the right to work 30 hours a week.‎ ‎ D. A woman employee gets paid even if she stays at home during work hours.‎ ‎47. A “30/40 plan” is being tested in Hard Plastics with an aim to ______.‎ ‎ A. let working women enjoy their family life ‎ B. improve employees working conditions ‎ C. reduce unemployment in Whitley ‎ D. raise the company’s productivity ‎48. We learn from the text that with 30/40, the company is able to ______.‎ ‎ A. employ more women workers ‎ B. employ more college graduates ‎ C. choose their employees from many applicants ‎ D. prevent workers from being late ‎49. What would be the best title for the text?‎ ‎ A. Hard Plastics: A Worker’sParadise ‎ B. US: Shorter Week Produces More ‎ C. 30/40 Program: A Better Way to Reduce Unemployment ‎ D. Ron Healey: His Contribution to Industrial Psychology C ‎ I had passed the roughly painted sign often on my way to and from work. In bold red letters, it read “Peaches-U-Pick—3 miles”. Finally, driving with my husband one day, I decided to check it out.‎ ‎ Less than a mile down the road, we came upon another “peaches” sign with a red arrow pointing right. Then, we came to a path leading away from the main road. Once on the path, we saw a smaller sign with only a red arrow directing us into a field of all grass. We walked through and found a red-tailed hawk (鹰) sitting on the fence. When we got closer, it flew off screaming loudly. “He must be the lookout,” I joked. We came out on the other side of the field to find another red arrow guiding us deeper into the woods. At exactly the three-mile point, we were greeted by a yellow dog, who looked as if he had been standing there waiting. We parked the car in the shade of trees, and found two more dogs, several cats, and peach trees as far as the eye could see. No one seemed to be home.‎ ‎ Nearby, a wooden table was topped with baskets, a map of the orchards (果园) and a message which read: “Welcome, friends. Peaches are $5 per basket. Pick all you want. Then put the money in the box below. Have fun.”‎ ‎ “Well,” I said loudly, looking at the dogs, “do you guys want to pick peaches?” They started barking and jumping around, then raced off ahead. We followed the dogs to the woods where the trees were loaded with beautiful ripe fruit. I ran to one tree, my husband to another, each of us followed by a dog. When our baskets were full, we turned back, our new friends heading the way.‎ ‎ The biggest tiger cat I had ever seen was asleep next to the money box. “Do you think he can count?” I asked. “After what we’ve seen today,” my husband replied, “he probably can make ‎ change.”‎ ‎ We were patting the dogs goodbye when a car pulled in. “Do you live here?” the driver asked. “No, but they’ll show you what to do,” I said, nodding at our furry hosts. As we drove off slowly, we looked back on --- a simple place of pure enjoyment.‎ ‎50. The sign “Peaches-U-Pick” means ______.‎ ‎ A. peach pickers wanted B. peach picking games ‎ C. picking peaches yourself D. peach-picking training courses ‎51. From the text we can learn that the orchard ______.‎ ‎ A. is a training base for farmers ‎ ‎ B. lies less than three miles from the main road ‎ C. serves as a summer camp for tourists ‎ ‎ D. is run by some well trained animals ‎52. The underlined words “furry hosts” in the last paragraph refer to______.‎ ‎ A. the newly arrived guests B. the animals on the orchard ‎ C. the owners of the orchard D. the peach trees D ‎ We are living in fast times. Yesterday’s unforgettable culture experience is today’s forgotten film or book. For a few months, the media was full of reports about “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon” (《藏龙卧虎》). Now the media has gone to the next big thing.‎ ‎ But some things have a more lasting influence. “Crouching tiger, Hidden Dragon” was the first Chinese film to have won major Oscars. And its success meant that millions of people across the world saw a film in Chinese about a Chinese subject.‎ ‎ This is a good example of what sociologists (社会学家) call “soft power.” Hard power is the ability to make others do what you want. Its weapons are guns and money and its aim is to control other countries.‎ ‎ Soft power is the ability to make other people want to please you. The weapon of “soft power” is film, books, TV programs and computer games. And the aim is to increase what advertisers call “mindshare”. That is, the amount of time people spend enjoying and thinking about what a culture or society has to offer.‎ ‎ According to Professor Joseph Nye, who invented the idea, soft power is replacing hard power ‎ as a way of measuring economic strength. Historically, armies are used to protect economic interest. These days, business increasingly depends on getting foreigners to understand and buy into your culture, and the products and services it produces.‎ ‎ Everyone knows about China’s economy. But how much soft power does China have? What role does China play in the cultural life of ordinary people thousands of miles away?‎ ‎53. The film “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon” is mentioned _______.‎ ‎ A. to introduce the idea of soft power ‎ B. to report the results of major Oscars ‎ C. to show the development of China’s economy ‎ D. to make known to the public the success of a Chinese film ‎54. Which of the following has a lasting influence?‎ ‎ A. Advanced techniques B. Economic interest.‎ ‎ C. Major Oscars. D. Culture experiences.‎ ‎55. According to the writer, which of the following can be referred to as soft power?‎ ‎ A. The media. B. Businesses. C. Sociologists. D. Armies and money.‎ ‎56. What is the main subject discussed in the text?‎ ‎ A. Culture is a product that can be advertised.‎ ‎ B. Oscars has a major effect on a countries economy.‎ ‎ C. A country’s economy is measured by the hard power.‎ ‎ D. Culture exchanges play an important role in a country’s economy.‎ E People living on part of the south coast of England face a serious problem. In 1993, the owners of a large hotel and several houses discovered that their gardens had disappeared overnight. The sea has eaten into the soft limestone cliffs on which they had been built. While experts were studying the problem, the hotel and several houses disappeared altogether, sliding down the cliff and into the sea. Erosion of the white cliff along the south coast of England has always been a problem but it has become more serious in recent years. Dozens of homes have had to be abandoned as the sea has moved farther and farther inland. Experts have studied the areas most affected and have drawn up a map for local people, foretelling the year in which the hungry sea will swallow up their homes.‎ ‎ Angry owners have called on the government to build sea defenses to protect their homes.‎ ‎ Government officials have pointed out that in most cases, this is impossible. New sea walls would cost hundreds of millions of pounds and would merely make the waves and currents (水流) go further along the coast, shifting the problem from one area to another. The danger is likely to continue, they say, until the waves reach an inland area of hard rock which will not be eaten as limestone. Meanwhile, if you want to buy a cheap house with an uncertain future, apply to a house agent in one of the threatened areas on the south coast of England. You can get a house for a knockdown price but it may turn out to be a knockdown home.‎ ‎57. What is the cause of the problem that people living on the south coast of England face?‎ ‎ A. The rising of the sea level.‎ ‎ B. The experts’ lack of knowledge.‎ ‎ C. The washing-away of limestone cliff.‎ ‎ D. The disappearing of hotels, houses and gardens.‎ ‎58. The erosion of the white cliffs in the south coast of England ______.‎ ‎ A. will soon become a problem for people in midland ‎ B. has now become a threat to the local people ‎ C. can be stopped if proper measures are taken ‎ D. is quickly changing the map of England ‎59. The experts’ study on the problem of erosion can ______.‎ ‎ A. lead to its final solution ‎ B. warn people whose home are in danger ‎ C. provide an effective way to slow it down ‎ D. help to find out when the cliff will disappear ‎60. It is impractical to build sea defenses to protect against erosion because ______.‎ ‎ A. the government is too slow in taking action ‎ B. it is too costly and will endanger neighboring areas ‎ C. house agents along the coast do not support the idea ‎ D. they will be easily knocked down by waves and currents ‎ 第二节：（共5小题; 每小题2分, 满分10分)‎ 阅读下列材料。从所给的六个选项(A、Ｂ、Ｃ、Ｄ、Ｅ、和F) 中，选出符合各人需要的最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。‎ ‎______61.

In 1990, 75 percent of the houses were state-owned. Five years later, the rate of state-owned houses to private ones was 60 to 40. But from then on, the ownership changed rapidly and in 2005, 80 percent of houses were private. What caused the changes? There may be two main reasons. First, since 1990, the people’s living standards have been improving. Most of them can afford to buy the houses they want with the help of loans from banks. Second, most people have changed their ideas of consumption. They do not save a lot of money in the bank but buy their own houses and enjoy life. Such changes do good to both the citizens and the development of society. Citizens can enjoy better living conditions; meanwhile, the changes also promote our country’s economy.‎
