The castle has a history of nearly 1000 years and has welcomed visitors traveling from all over the world. Arundel‎ ‎Castle also plays a starring role in many films.‎ The Gardens The White‎ ‎Garden is planted with soft white Iceberg Roses, and Snow White Lilies.‎ The Rose Garden is newly planted with lovely old-fashioned English roses that are at their very best in June and July.‎ The Organic Kitchen Garden produces a wide range of seasonal fruit and vegetables, pears, cherries and apples.‎ The Castle Shop In the Castle Shop, you will discover a wide and interesting range of gift ideas for everyone.

By holding the Panjat Pinang game, Indonesians want to 　　　 　. ‎ A. celebrate its country’s independence B. test agility and strength C. get the prizes at the top of the pole D. carry forward the team spirit ‎5. The Dutch accepted the independence of Indonesia because of 　　　 　. ‎ A. four-year independence movements B. pressure from the United Nations C. Japanese surrender D. Japanese invasion ‎6. What can we learn from the passage?‎ A. The Panjat Pinang game dates from a tradition of Indonesian culture.‎ B. One man isn’t able to get the prizes without help.‎ C. The prizes will be given to the one who gets it.‎ D. The competitors are unable to grip the pole with grease or oil.‎ ‎7. The best title of the passage is 　　　 　. ‎ A. The Panjat Pinang game in Indonesia B. Indonesian independence celebrations C. Indonesia’s independence way D. Traditions of Indonesian culture C Americans wear black for mourning(哀悼) while Chinese wear white. Westerners think of dragons as monsters. Chinese honor them as symbols of God. Chinese civilization has often shown such polarities(对立) with the West, as though each stands at extreme ends of a global string. Now in the University of California, Berkeley, a psychologist, has discovered deeper polarities between Chinese and American cultures—polarities that go to the heart of how we reason and discover truth.‎ His findings go far toward explaining why American cultures seem to be aggressive and Chinese cultures so passive, when compared to each other. More importantly, the research opens the way for the peoples of the East and the West to learn from each other in basic ways. The Chinese could learn much from Western methods for determining scientific truth, said Kaiping Peng, a former Beijing Scholar, who is now a UC Berkley assistant professor of psychology. And Americans could profit enormously from the Chinese tolerance for accepting contradictions in social and personal life, he said.‎ ‎“Americans have a terrible need to find out who is right in an argument,” said Peng. “The problem is that at the interpersonal level you really don’t need to find the truth, or maybe there isn’t any.” Chinese people, said Peng, are far more content to think that both sides have advantages and disadvantages, because they have a whole awareness that life is full of contradictions. They do far less blaming of the individual than do Americans, he added.‎ In studies of interpersonal argument, for example, when subjects were asked to deal with contradictory information resulting from conflict between a mother and a daughter or a student and a school, Peng found that Americans were “non-compromising(折中), blaming one side—usually the mother — for the causes of the problems, demanding changes from one side to attain a solution and ‎ offering no compromise” in dealing with the conflict. Compared to this angry, blaming American method, the Chinese were paragons(模范) of compromise, finding fault on both sides and looking for solutions that moved both sides to the middle.‎ ‎8．In Paragraph 1, the author sets examples in order to ___.‎ ‎ A．expose the contradiction between Chinese and Americans ‎ B．show the differences between Chinese culture and American culture ‎ C．find the reason for the differences ‎ D．generalize the main idea of the passage ‎9．In the opinion of Peng, compared with Americans, Chinese are ___.‎ ‎ A. likely to find the truth in life B. unwilling to admit their own failure ‎ C. unwilling to have a general idea of things D. likely to know advantages and disadvantages of things ‎10．The studies show ___.‎ ‎ A．an American treats his or her mother badly B．different ideas of treating the aged ‎ C．different personality of Chinese and Americans D．different hobbies of Americans and Chinese ‎11．The main idea of the passage is ___.‎ ‎ A．polarities between American and Chinese cultures B．extreme ends of the string ‎ C．different attitudes towards the aged D．different manners in social occasions D If you want to become a fluent English speaker you should take some advice: There are four skills in learning English. They are reading, listening, speaking, and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills you should first master the skills of reading and listening.‎ Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentences, the meaning of the unfamiliar words, etc. There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammar or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you come across, but the fact that you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example in other passages or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it.‎ As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading, then you ‎ can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening.‎ For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes.‎ If you follow these pieces of advice, your speaking and writing will improve automatically, and you can be sure that with a title effort they will become perfect.‎ ‎12. According to the author, which should you improve first among the four skills?‎ ‎ A. Reading and listening. B. Reading and writing.‎ ‎ C. Writing and speaking. D. Speaking and listening.‎ ‎13. To improve your reading, when you read you should .‎ ‎ A. look up all the new words in the dictionary ‎ B. think about what you are reading actively ‎ C. spend more time studying grammar ‎ D. copy as many words and sentences as possible ‎14. The author seems to agree with the view that .‎ ‎ A. everyone should listen to VOA or BBC programs every day ‎ B. you needn’t practice listening if you keep on reading every day ‎ C. being good at reading is helpful in improving your listening ‎ D. you should take notes of whatever you are hearing ‎15. The passage is mainly about how to .‎ ‎ A. choose suitable listening materials ‎ B. deal with new words in reading ‎ C. improve your English as quickly as possible ‎ ‎ D. become fluent in speaking and writing English 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。‎ The pine tree(松树) is a special kind of tree. ___16___This is because many people put pine trees in their homes at Christmas time.

Brown fat burns energy, 　42　 helps us lose weight. White fat stores extra energy, which results 　43　 weight gain.
