A
Did you make a New Year’s resolution(新年计划)? If so, you’re not alone. On January 1, 2008 many states started some new laws.
Airline passengers in New York will be no longer so angry if they are stuck in an airplane on the runway. A new law makes sure that passengers will have food, water, fresh air and bathrooms if a plane is delayed on the ground for more than three hours. In Oregon and Washington, drivers must put their hands on their steering wheels(方向盘) instead of on their phones. Text messaging is now not allowed while driving in these states. If you live in California and you’re under 18, no one may smoke in a car with you, according to a new law. Smokers also have new restrictions(限制) in Illinois. December 31,2007 was the last day that smokers could light up in restaurants and public buildings. From January 1,2008 on, those areas have been strictly smoke-free. The law is good for [people working in restaurants, who now won’t have to breathe second-hand smoke.
Why do so many new laws begin on January 1? It’s not just because states want to turn over a new leaf in the New Year. It is simply part of the make-a-law process(过程). Laws go into effect on
different days in different states; sometimes it is written into the state constitution(宪法). For example, all California laws go into effect on January 1. 56. what should you do if you live in California?
A. You should stop sending text messages while driving .
B. You can get food for free if a plane doesn’t take off on time C. You should stop smoking in a restaurant or other public places D. You should stop smoking if there is a child in your car
57. According to the second paragraph, who is the new law that began on January 1,2008 in Illinois good for?
A. Airline passengers
B. Drivers
C. Lawmakers
D. Waiters
58. Why do so many new laws begin on January 1 in America? ①States want to turn over a new leaf in the New Year ②It is a law and all states have to do so ③It is done according to the law process ④January 1 is the time to make resolutions A. ①②
B. ③④.
C. ②④
D.①③
59. What do we know from the passage?
A. A new law ensures airline passengers will have free food in America B. No one in California can smoke in a car in 2008 C. All California new laws go into effect on January 1 D. Smokers in Illinois could not smoke in restaurants in 2007 60. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Why so many new laws begin on January 1
B. Drivers shouldn’t use their phones to send messages C. Many new laws came into effect in America on January 1 D. New Year’s resolutions are very important
B
Sir Edmund Hillary is best known for being the first, along with climbing partner Tenzing Norgay, to reach the top of Mount Qomolangma(珠穆朗玛峰). However, he also made many visits to Antarctica (南极洲). In 1957, he led the first trip over ice to the South Pole. Hillary also helped his home country, New Zealand, build a research center on Antarctica, called Scott Base. He visited it in January 2007, when he was 87 years old.
In the 1900s, many people like Hillary saw Antarctica as an exciting place. Scientists are interested in how glaciers (冰川) flow and melt. They also worry that global (全球的) warming is making glaciers melt faster. It has caused a 75 percent increase in ice loss in the last 10 years, according to a new study. Scientists say ice loss could cause water levels around the world to rise faster than expected. Ice is melting faster than expected because of global warming.
Researchers in Antarctica are studying many other subjects too. Some use the cold weather and clear air as a way to study things that affect other parts of the globe. Antarctica has the cleanest air in the world. That allows scientists to compare the air there to the air in polluted places. Antarctica is the darkest place on the earth, so it is a great place to study the stars. Some scientists are even studying penguin droppings(企鹅粪). They have developed a new test to learn more about penguins’ diets.
61. The final result of global warming is that _______.
A. there would be no ice
B. water levels could rise faster D. the ocean would be polluted
C. the climate would become warm
62. What is Sir Edmund Hillary best known for?
A. He was the first to reach the top of Mount Qomolangma.
B. He went to Antarctica many times.
C. He led the first trip to the South Pole.
D. He helped build a research center on Antarctica. 63. It can be learned from the passage that______.
A. ice melts fast but is not faster than expected
B. Antarctica is not a good place to study the stars
C. Antarctica is the darkest place with the cleanest air D. even penguins will not live in Antarctica in the future 64. Who of the following would NOT be interested in Antarctica?
A. People who are interested in what penguins eat B. Researchers who like watching stars.
C. Adventurers who decide to climb Mount Qomolangma. D. Scientists who are studying the world’s air.
65. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Edmund Hillary C. Global Warming
B. Antarctica---- Best Place for Scientific Research D. Studies on Antarctica
C
It was a quiet village in which there was a military camp. It was far from the towns and cities and there were some high mountains around. Of course it was a good place for training the new soldiers. But it was difficult for the young men to go outside. Mr. White, an officer of forty, was strict with them and he hardly let them leave the camp.
Once Mr. White was ill in bed. He couldn’t work and a young officer, Mr. Hunt, began to train the new soldiers instead of him. He knew the young men well and let nine soldiers go to the nearest town to have a holiday. But night fell and none came back to the camp. He was worried about it and stood at the gate. It was five to twelve when Mr. Hunt decided to go to the town and see what was happening with the young men. He started the car quickly and set off. At that moment the nine soldiers came back. It seemed they were all drunk. Of course they found the officer was angry.
“I’m sorry, sir,” said the first soldier. “I left the town on time. But something was wrong with my bus on my way here. I had to buy a horse and made it run fast. Bad luck! It died and I had to run back.”
And the other seven soldiers said they were late for the same reasons. It was the last soldier’s turn. He said, “I’m sorry, sir. I got on a bus on time, but…”
Having heard this, the officer became even angrier and stopped him at once. He called out, “If you say something was wrong with your bus, I’ll punish you at once!”
“No, no, sir,” said the young man. “My bus was all right, but the dead horses were in its way!” 66. The military camp was built in the village to _______.
A. train the new soldiers
B. stop the soldiers meeting their friends
C. stop the soldiers going to towns D. make the young men live quietly 67. Mr. Hunt let the nine soldiers have a holiday because _______.
A. they had something important to do B. they felt lonely C. he was kind to them
D. they were the best of all
68. The young officer was worried because _______.
A. a traffic accident had happened
B. the nine soldiers drank too much in the town C. the nine soldiers didn’t come back on time
D. he was afraid something happened to the nine soldiers 69. The nine soldiers returned to the camp late because _______.
A. something was wrong with their buses B. they all had drunk much in the town
C. it took them much time to run back D. their horses died on the return way 70. Which answer do you think right?

第一节:阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面的短文,并根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后字数要求)。
[1] A common compliant I hear from students: “There just isn’t enough time in the day to get
everything done!” Here are four simple ways to extract more productivity from your day.
[2] Ignore e-mail. You are not a CEO. No disasters will occur if your messages are not immediately read. Wait until lunch to check your e-mail for the first time in the day. Spend the morning in classes and working. After lunch, wait until dinner to check it again.
[3] _______________ The problem with a to-do list is that it does not take into account how much time you have available during the day. A quick solution is to replace a to-do list with time blocks (时段). By blocking the time, you gain two advantages. One, a realistic understanding of how much you can actually fit into your day. Two, a schedule.
[4] Create a morning routineDuring the week, get up at the same time every day. Grab a quick breakfast from the same place and head to the same study location to get some pre-class work done. In addition to freeing up some extra time this habit builds up some productivity momentum (势头) that will serve you for the rest of the day.
[5] Arrange mosquito tasks. Even college students can grow long lists of non-academic tasks. Laundry. Call home. Pay cell phone bill. Return library books. Request transcript from Registrar. Buy birthday gift for Mom. These can add up. This causes stress. A simple way: pick one half-hour block each day in which to deal with all of the small, non-academic tasks that need to get done. Right before or after dinner is a good time.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Did you make a New Year’s resolution(新年计划)? If so, you’re not alone. On January 1, 2008 many states started some new laws.
Airline passengers in New York will be no longer so angry if they are stuck in an airplane on the runway. A new law makes sure that passengers will have food, water, fresh air and bathrooms if a plane is delayed on the ground for more than three hours. In Oregon and Washington, drivers must put their hands on their steering wheels(方向盘) instead of on their phones. Text messaging is now not allowed while driving in these states. If you live in California and you’re under 18, no one may smoke in a car with you, according to a new law. Smokers also have new restrictions(限制) in Illinois. December 31,2007 was the last day that smokers could light up in restaurants and public buildings. From January 1,2008 on, those areas have been strictly smoke-free. The law is good for [people working in restaurants, who now won’t have to breathe second-hand smoke.
Why do so many new laws begin on January 1? It’s not just because states want to turn over a new leaf in the New Year. It is simply part of the make-a-law process(过程). Laws go into effect on
different days in different states; sometimes it is written into the state constitution(宪法). For example, all California laws go into effect on January 1. 56. what should you do if you live in California?
A. You should stop sending text messages while driving .
B. You can get food for free if a plane doesn’t take off on time C. You should stop smoking in a restaurant or other public places D. You should stop smoking if there is a child in your car

Sir Edmund Hillary is best known for being the first, along with climbing partner Tenzing Norgay, to reach the top of Mount Qomolangma(珠穆朗玛峰). However, he also made many visits to Antarctica (南极洲). In 1957, he led the first trip over ice to the South Pole. Hillary also helped his home country, New Zealand, build a research center on Antarctica, called Scott Base. He visited it in January 2007, when he was 87 years old.
In the 1900s, many people like Hillary saw Antarctica as an exciting place. Scientists are interested in how glaciers (冰川) flow and melt. They also worry that global (全球的) warming is making glaciers melt faster. It has caused a 75 percent increase in ice loss in the last 10 years, according to a new study. Scientists say ice loss could cause water levels around the world to rise faster than expected. Ice is melting faster than expected because of global warming.
Researchers in Antarctica are studying many other subjects too. Some use the cold weather and clear air as a way to study things that affect other parts of the globe. Antarctica has the cleanest air in the world. That allows scientists to compare the air there to the air in polluted places. Antarctica is the darkest place on the earth, so it is a great place to study the stars. Some scientists are even studying penguin droppings(企鹅粪). They have developed a new test to learn more about penguins’ diets.
61. The final result of global warming is that _______.
A. there would be no ice
B. water levels could rise faster D. the ocean would be polluted
C. the climate would become warm
62. What is Sir Edmund Hillary best known for?
A. He was the first to reach the top of Mount Qomolangma.
B. He went to Antarctica many times.
C. He led the first trip to the South Pole.
D. He helped build a research center on Antarctica. 63. It can be learned from the passage that______.
A. ice melts fast but is not faster than expected
B. Antarctica is not a good place to study the stars
C. Antarctica is the darkest place with the cleanest air D. even penguins will not live in Antarctica in the future 64. Who of the following would NOT be interested in Antarctica?
A. People who are interested in what penguins eat B. Researchers who like watching stars.
C. Adventurers who decide to climb Mount Qomolangma. D. Scientists who are studying the world’s air.
65. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Edmund Hillary C. Global Warming
B. Antarctica---- Best Place for Scientific Research D. Studies on Antarctica
C
It was a quiet village in which there was a military camp. It was far from the towns and cities and there were some high mountains around. Of course it was a good place for training the new soldiers. But it was difficult for the young men to go outside. Mr. White, an officer of forty, was strict with them and he hardly let them leave the camp.
Once Mr. White was ill in bed. He couldn’t work and a young officer, Mr. Hunt, began to train the new soldiers instead of him. He knew the young men well and let nine soldiers go to the nearest town to have a holiday. But night fell and none came back to the camp. He was worried about it and stood at the gate. It was five to twelve when Mr. Hunt decided to go to the town and see what was happening with the young men. He started the car quickly and set off. At that moment the nine soldiers came back. It seemed they were all drunk. Of course they found the officer was angry.
“I’m sorry, sir,” said the first soldier. “I left the town on time. But something was wrong with my bus on my way here. I had to buy a horse and made it run fast. Bad luck! It died and I had to run back.”
And the other seven soldiers said they were late for the same reasons. It was the last soldier’s turn. He said, “I’m sorry, sir. I got on a bus on time, but…”
Having heard this, the officer became even angrier and stopped him at once. He called out, “If you say something was wrong with your bus, I’ll punish you at once!”
“No, no, sir,” said the young man. “My bus was all right, but the dead horses were in its way!” 66. The military camp was built in the village to _______.

68. The young officer was worried because _______.

第一节:阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面的短文,并根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后字数要求)。
[1] A common compliant I hear from students: “There just isn’t enough time in the day to get
everything done!” Here are four simple ways to extract more productivity from your day.
[2] Ignore e-mail. You are not a CEO. No disasters will occur if your messages are not immediately read. Wait until lunch to check your e-mail for the first time in the day. Spend the morning in classes and working. After lunch, wait until dinner to check it again.
[3] _______________ The problem with a to-do list is that it does not take into account how much time you have available during the day. A quick solution is to replace a to-do list with time blocks (时段). By blocking the time, you gain two advantages. One, a realistic understanding of how much you can actually fit into your day. Two, a schedule.
[4] Create a morning routineDuring the week, get up at the same time every day. Grab a quick breakfast from the same place and head to the same study location to get some pre-class work done. In addition to freeing up some extra time this habit builds up some productivity momentum (势头) that will serve you for the rest of the day.
[5] Arrange mosquito tasks. Even college students can grow long lists of non-academic tasks. Laundry. Call home. Pay cell phone bill. Return library books. Request transcript from Registrar. Buy birthday gift for Mom. These can add up. This causes stress. A simple way: pick one half-hour block each day in which to deal with all of the small, non-academic tasks that need to get done. Right before or after dinner is a good time.
