The Original Trans—Siberian Express Spanning 9,288 km of tracks, this is perhaps the longest passenger train route in the world. With an average speed of just 77 km/h, the trip from Moscow to Vladivostok isn’t for those on a tight schedule-you’ll need to set aside a minimum of 146 hours and 8 minutes, and most journeys include stopovers(中途停留). But for that investment you’ll cross multiple time zones and witness the marvelous terrain(地形)of Russia.‎ II. The Canadian The trip from Toronto to Vancouver is 83 hours long-but considering you’ll be winding through the steep and snow-capped Rocky Mountains and Canadian Shield forests, the pace suits anyone looking for relaxation, rest and peaceful views. Huge glass windows make the most of the scenery as the train winds its way across 4, 466 km of Canada’s diverse landscape.‎ III. The Blue Train South Africa’s famous Blue Train spans 1.600 km of track linking Pretoria with Cape Town. It’s more like a hotel on trails than a train, and there are carriages where passengers can mix in comfort and some suites contain full-size baths. The journey takes 27 hours from start to finish and crosses some of the most diverse and unique scenery on the African continent. Don’t expect to feel the rush of wind through your hair though, as its average speed is just 57 km/h.‎ IV. The Indian Pacific Departing from Sydney, it takes about 70 hours for the Indian Pacific to cross the Australian continents on its way to Perth. Stopping at the mining town of Broken Hill, you’ll cover 4,352 km at an average speed of 85 km/h. At that rate, you’ll catch the full glory of the sun setting across the horizon on the longest stretch of straight rail track in the world. Travel in spring for the best of Western Australia’s wild flowers.‎ ‎21. Which of the following is TRUE about the Original Trans—Siberian Express?‎ ‎ A. It’s the longest passenger train route in Africa.‎ ‎ B. The whole journey takes at most 146 hours and 8 minutes.‎ ‎ C. It is the best choice for those on a tight schedule.‎ ‎ D. There are many stopovers during the journey.‎ ‎22. If you take the Canadian train, you will_____.‎ ‎ A. have a 1,600 km journey that takes 83 hours.‎ ‎ B. be able to appreciate the scenery of the Rocky Mountains ‎ C. feel comfortable as its average speed is 77 km/h ‎ D. appreciate the marvelous terrain of Russia ‎23. Which train will provide you with carriages that are both large and elegant?‎ ‎ A. The Original Trans—Siberian Express.‎ ‎ B. The Canadian.‎ ‎ C. The Blue Train ‎ D. The Indian Pacific B In the 1960s there were no state preschools or nurseries in the United Kingdom, so for most children just turning five years old, their first day at school was the first time they had been on their own. Having got over the first pain of separation from mothers, school life soon fell into a routine. School milk was part of this routine, hated by all children. In 1971, school milk for the over-sevens was withdrawn by Margaret Thatcher.‎ The School Broadcasting Council had been set up by 1947 and radio played a great part in education in the 1960s. Music and Movement was one such program, and children could be found leaping and stretching to the commands on the radio. There was no gym kit(运动套装)in primary school, so the children just did P. E in their vests and bare feet. Another such program was Singing Together, where the class would gather to sing traditional songs. However, whether the content of some of these songs was indeed suitable for the pupil was another question.‎ Class sizes were never small, often over 30 children to a class. There were no classroom assistants, just the class teacher, so discipline was strict. It was quite common for a naughty child to be hit on the palm of the hand with a ruler. In the 1960s teaching was a “talk and chalk” education. Reading, writing and arithmetic were very important, and nature study was popular and often the only science taught at primary school Before moving on to secondary school, children had to take a series of tests, which included both verbal(语言的)and non-verbal reasoning papers. The verbal reasoning would test a child’s command and use of English, whereas the non-verbal reasoning paper was designed to test a child’s IQ with puzzles and problem-solving question.‎ ‎24. What happened in the UK in the 1960s?‎ ‎ A. Primary pupils could get school milk.‎ ‎ B. Children were usually sent to preschools at the age of 5.‎ ‎ C. Teachers never punished pupils ‎ D. Primary school classes were often small in size.‎ ‎25. The second paragraph is mainly about_____.‎ ‎ A. the importance of primary education ‎ B. the major activities in primary schools.‎ ‎ C. the importance of the School Broadcasting Council ‎ D. the subjects that pupils learned at school.‎ ‎26. What do we know about the pupils?‎ ‎ A. They were fond of the milk offered at school.‎ ‎ B. They did exercise in gym kits at school ‎ C. They could only learn science in nature study classes.‎ ‎ D. They had their IQ tested by taking a verbal reasoning test.‎ ‎27. Which of the following is TRUE about the school?‎ ‎ A. The first day at school was very happy for children.‎ ‎ B. There weren’t multimedia teaching facilities at school ‎ C. There were folk songs designed for pupils to sing at school ‎ D. The class teacher managed classes with the aid of the assistant.‎ C There was a young woman who took great pride in the growth and care of the flowers in her flower garden. She had been raised by her grandmother, who had taught her to love and care for flowers, as she herself had done. So, like her grandmother, her flower garden was the best in the neighborhood.‎ One day while looking through a flower catalogue she often ordered from, a picture of a plant immediately caught her eye. She had never seen flowers like that before. “ I have to have it,” she said to herself, and she immediately ordered it.‎ When it arrived, she had already had a place prepared to plant it. She planted it at the base of a stone wall at the back of her yard. It grew vigorously (蓬勃地), with green beautiful leaves all ‎ over it, but there were no blooms(花朵). Day after day, she continued to cultivate it, water it, feed it, and she even talked to it, attempting to coax it into blooming, but it was in vain.‎ One morning weeks later, as she stood before the vine(藤), she realized how disappointed she was that her plant had not bloomed. She was giving considerable thought to cutting it down and planting something else in its place.‎ It was at this point that her neighbor, whose garden was next to hers, called over to her, “Thank you so much! You can’t imagine how much I have enjoyed the blooms of that vine you planted.” The young woman walked through the gate into her neighbor’s yard, and sure enough, she saw that on the other side of the wall the vine was filled with blooms.‎ They were indeed the most beautiful blooms she had ever seen. The vine had crept through the crevices(裂缝)in the wall. It had not flowered on her side of the wall, but it had flowered luxuriantly on the other side.‎ ‎28. From the 1st paragraph, we can infer that the young woman_____.‎ ‎ A. couldn’t have had the best flower garden without her grandmother’s influence.‎ ‎ B. had the same flower garden as her grandmother had ‎ C. had a flower garden that was better than her grandmother’s ‎ D. had been raised by her grandmother.‎ ‎29. What does the underlined word in the 3rd paragraph probably mean?‎ ‎ A. force B. argue ‎ C. sweet-talk D. frighten ‎30. Why did the woman decide to cut the vine down?‎ ‎ A. There was no place for it to grow.‎ ‎ B. It didn’t bloom although she had dedicated herself to looking after it.‎ ‎ C. It died because of a lack of attention ‎ D. It didn’t grow well though she put a great deal of effort into cultivating it.‎ ‎31. The passage tells us that_____.‎ ‎ A. not seeing the results of your labor doesn’t mean it bore no fruit.‎ ‎ B. you shouldn’t give up easily even if the results are bad.‎ ‎ C. as you sow, so shall you reap(收割)‎ ‎ D. what you can see is only the surface of things, not their true nature.‎ D Nearly half of adults do not know being overweight increases the risk of developing cancer, worrying new figures show.‎ Some 41 percent of the British adult population are unaware that weight is strongly linked to the disease, a survey by the charity, the World Cancer Research Fund, found. Cancer charities have called the figures “alarming”, given that 62 percent of English adults are currently overweight. Being overweight increases the risk of developing 10 different cancers, including breast, liver and pancreatic(胰腺)cancer.‎ Furthermore, the survey found 54 percent of those questioned were not aware that a lack of physical activity can increase cancer risk. And 40 percent did not realize eating a poor diet raises the chances, while 43 percent had no idea drinking alcohol does, too.‎ Across the country, Welsh adults were the least aware that all these factors increase the risk of the disease. Those in Yorkshire and the Humber region were the least likely to know about the link between lack of exercise and cancer, while those in the West Midlands were in the dark about the link between drinking alcohol and the chance of developing cancer. When it comes o knowing how poor diet affects the risk, adults in the East of England were the least aware of the connection.‎ After not smoking, maintaining a healthy weight is the most important thing people can do to reduce their cancer risk, the charity says. It estimates around a third of the most common cancers could be prevented through choosing a healthy choosing a healthy diet, being physically active and maintaining a healthy body weight. This amounts to about 84,000 cases a year in the UK, including 24,000 which could be avoided if everyone maintained a healthy weight. The charity has launched a new campaign called “I CAN” to improve low levels of awareness and encourage people to take action. Amanda McLean, director at World Cancer Research Fund UK, said: “This New Year we hope people will get behind our campaign, ‘I CAN’ , and make small changes to their lifestyles-they could make a huge difference to their health.”‎ ‎32.

People in the West Midlands do not realize the link between drinking alcohol and cancer risk ‎35. What is the passage mainly about?‎ ‎ A. The health situation of English adults.‎ ‎ B. The factors that affect a person’s health ‎ C. Fat people have an increased cancer risk ‎ D.

But if these feelings don’t go away or become so intense that you can’t handle them, you may be suffering from depression. 36. _________‎ Try not to isolate yourself When you’re depressed, you may not feel like seeing anybody or dong anything.
