Passage 1 Questions 25 to 27 are based on the passage you have. just heard.
C.Simple tools are forgotten in the modem society.
D.Modern technology are needed in the modem society.
A B C D
A
[解析] 25-27 Sometimes the simplest of tools is the most useful. Consider, for example, the ruler. A ruler is mainly used to measure and draw straight lines on flat surfaces. It does not have a great many uses, especially since parents and teachers have given up trying to instruct children through spankings. Some rulers are clear and can be seen through, some made of metal, and some provide both metric and American measurements. People carry them in their shirt pockets, briefcases, or purses, to have them available for use any time. Of course, the ruler is not only simple but very useful device. Consider, for instance, the pencil, the doorknobs and hinges, and glass. Jet planes and computers are fine, but not necessary for survival. Who, on the other hand, could survive without the simple tools mentioned here? 25. What is the main idea of this passage? [试题分析]本题考查考生对全篇信息的把握。 [关键词句]simple tools，useful，survive [详细解答]全文第一句是本文的主题句，即Some．times the simplest of tools is the most useful．然后举“ruler”一例来说明“最简单的工具有时是最有用的”。本文的最后一句也是关键句，即Who，0n the other hand，could survive without the simple tools mentioned here?它进一步说明简单工具对生存的重要性。故本题应选A。
2.

Passage 2 Questions 28 to 30 are based on the passage you have just heard.
D.They exchanged opinions with some people in a particular field.
A B C D
D
[解析] 28-30 In ancient times the most important examinations were spoken, not written. In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome, testing usually consisted of saying poetry aloud or giving speeches. In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students who were working for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their field of study with people who had made a special study of the subject. This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates for the doctor's degree. Generally, however, modern examinations are written. The written examination, where all students are tested on the same questions, was probably not known until the nineteenth century. Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in population and the development of modern industry. A room full of candidates for a state examination, timed exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over by managers, resembles a group of workers at an automobile factory. Certainly, during examinations teachers and students are expected to act as machines. One type of test is sometimes called an objective test. It is intended to deal with facts, not personal opinions. To make up an objective test the teacher writes a series of questions, each of which has only one correct answer. 28. How did students in Middle Ages take a test? [试题分析]本题考查考生对词义的理解。 [关键词句]discuss questions [详细解答]古希腊、罗马学校的学生考试包括“saying poetry aloud”和“giving speeches”，而中世纪的欧洲大学得要“discuss questions in their field…with people who…”，这种考试属于subjective tests(主观考试)，而非objective tests(客观考试)，故本题答案为D。

D.The written examinations are more subjective than the spoken ones.
A B C D
A
[解析] Which of the following might be the reason of the application of written examination? [试题分析]本题考查考生对某一现象产生的原因的了解。 [关键词句]with the great increase in population and the development of modern industry [详细解答]“随着人口的增长与现代工业的发展，笔试产生了”。故选A，意为“选手(人口)的增加”。

Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension
Section A Reading Comprehension Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.
Passage 1 We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money, but most mistakes are about people. "Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen? "When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy my luck? "And Paul why didn't I pick up that he was friendly just because I had a car?" When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back. It’s too late. Why do we go wrong about our friends--or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we don't really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, "You're a lucky dog." Is he really on your side? If he says, "You're a lucky guy" or "You're a lucky gal," that's being friendly. But "lucky dog"? There's a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn't see it himself. But bringing m the "dog" bit puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesn't think you deserve your luck. "Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for" is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn't important. It's telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven't got a date for Saturday night. How can you tell the real meaning behind someone's words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says square with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.
1. When the writer recalls the things that happened between him and his friends, he ______.
A.feels happy, thinking of how nice his friends were to him
B.feels he may not have "read" his friends' true feelings correctly
2. By saying "You're a lucky dog.", the speaker ______.
A.is just being friendly
B.expresses the same meaning as "You're a lucky guy." or “You’re a lucky gal."
C.is humorous to apply the word "dog" to people
D.has a hidden jealous feeling behind the words
A B C D
D
[解析] 有人说“You’re a lucky dog．”时，他真正的含义是…… [试题分析]此题考查结合上下文对句子的理解。 [详细解答]第二段的倒数第四句说lucky dog“有点嫉妒之意”，因“dog”有点贬低人，故D正确而C错。而“You’re a lucky guy．”or “You’re a lucky gal．”却表示友好之意，故A和B皆错。
3. In listening to a person, the important thing is______.
A.to notice his tone, his posture, and the look in his eye
B.to listen to how he pronounces his words
C.to check his words against his manner, his tone of voice, and his posture
Passage 2 Sleep is part of a person's daily activity cycle. There are several different stages of sleep, and they too occur in cycles. If you are an average sleeper, your sleep cycle is as follows. When you first drift off into slumber (安睡), your eyes will roll about a bit, your temperature will drop slightly, your muscles will relax, and your breathing were slow and become quite regular. Your brain waves slow down a bit too, with the alpha rhythm of rather fast waves predominating for the first few minutes. This is called stage 1 sleep. For the next half hour or so, as you relax more and more, you will drift down through stage 2 and stage 3 sleep. The lower your stage of sleep, the slower your brain waves will be. Then about 40 to 60 minutes after you lose consciousness you will have reached the deepest sleep of all. Your brain waves will show the large slow waves that are known as the delta rhythm. This is stage 4 sleep. You do not remain at this deep fourth stage all night long, but instead about 80 minutes after you fall into slumber, your brain activity level will increase again slightly. The delta rhythm" will disappear, to be replaced by the activity pattern of brain waves. Your eyes will begin to dart around under your closed eyelids (眼皮) as if you were looking at something occurring in front of you. This period of rapid eye movement lasts for some 8 to 15 minutes and is called REM sleep. It is during REM sleep period, your body will soon relax again, your breathing will grow slow and regular once more, and you will slip gently back from stage 1 to stage 4 sleep--only to rise once again to the surface of near consciousness some 80 minutes later.
4. In the second paragraph the word "dart" means______.
A.glare
C.stop moving
B.move rapidly or suddenly
D.gaze
A B C D
B
[解析] 第二段中“dart”一词意为…… [试题分析]此题考查考生根据上下文推测单词意义的能力。 [详细解答]dart的后文说“眼睛好像看着发生在眼前的事”，又说“这种快速移动眼睛的阶段叫REM sleep”，据此可知dart意为move quickly or suddenly(飞快地移动)。glare怒目而视；gaze凝视。
5. One of the features of REM sleep is that______.
A.there are large slow waves, though rapid for the first few minutes
B.you have the deepest sleep
C.there are no brain waves
D.the brain waves are a little fast and the brain becomes a little active
A B C D
D
[解析] 快波睡眠的特点之一是…… [试题分析]此题考查细节推理能力。 [详细解答]从第二段第一、二句可知大脑运动水平会再度略有提高，而delta波消失，取代的是脑电波运动图形。据此可知脑电波变得快了一点，大脑活跃些。而大的缓波和睡得最深是stage 4 sleep的特征，rapid for the first few minutes是stage 1 sleep的特征，整个睡眠阶段都是有脑电波的，故A，B和C皆错。 [作者建议]此题可用排除法。
Passage 3 Designing a lens can be compared to playing chess. In chess a player tries to trap his opponent's king in a series of moves. In creating a lens a lens designer attempts to "trap" light by forcing all the rays arising from a single point in the subject to focus on a single point in the image, as a consequence of their passing through a series of transparent (透明的) elements with precisely curved surfaces. Since in both cases the ultimate goal and the means by which it can be attained are known, one is tempted to think there will be a single best decision at any point along the way. The number of possible consequences flowing from any one decision is so large, however, as to be virtually, if not actually, infinite. Therefore in lens design, as in chess, perfect solutions to a problem are beyond reach. Although this article will be concerned only with the design of photographic lenses, the same principles apply to all lenses. The lens designer has one enormous advantage over the chess player: the designer is free to call on any available source of help to guide him through the staggering number of possibilities. Most of that help once came from mathematics and physics, but recently computer technology, information theory, chemistry, industrial engineering and psychophysics have all contributed to making the lens designer's job immeasurably more productive. Some of the lenses on the market today were inconceivable a decade ago. Others whose design is as much as a century old can now be mass-pro-duced at low cost. With the development of automatic production methods, lenses are made by the millions, both out of glass and out of plastics. Today's lenses are better than the best lenses used by the great photographers of the past. Moreover, their price may lower, in spite of the fact that 19thcentury craftsmen worked for only a few dollars a week and today's lenses are more complex. The lens designer cannot fail to be grateful for the science and technology that have made his work easier and his creations more widely available, but he is also humbled: it is no longer practical for a fine photographic lens to be designed from beginning to end by a single human mind.
1. Lens design and chess playing are similar in that______.
A.the final goal and the means by which it can be reached are known
B.perfect solutions to a problem can be found
C.any one decision at any point along the way to the goal can bring numerous possible results
3. After the passage the author will talk about______.
A.the principles of designing lenses
B.techniques of making contact lenses
C.the design of photographic lenses
D.styles of lenses
A B C D
C
[解析] 接着这段文章之后，作者可能会谈到 [试题分析]此题为推测作者下一步写作内容的题。 [详细解答]第一段的最后一句说“this article will be concerned only with the design of photographic lenses”．故C正确。contact lenses隐形眼镜。
4. Which of the following words cannot be used to describe today's lenses?
Section B Skimming and Scanning Directions: In this section there are four passages with a total of four multiple-choice questions. Skim or scan them as required and then mark your answer on your answer sheet.
Passage 1
1. An expectant mother has to avoid alcohol during her pregnancy. Too much alcohol in her blood can deprive the fetus of necessary nutrition, and the baby will he born underweight. There is also mounting evidence that smoking during pregnancy can permanently damage the child's health, and children of smokers tend to have a higher incidence of respiratory infection throughout their lives. Clearly, mothers-to-be who smoke should try to cut back or quit. They should also he careful about the type of exercise they do, and very vigorous exercise should be avoided. During pregnancy, medication must be carefully monitored as well. Too often drugs not harmful to the mother can do serious, even irreparable, damage to the child.Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?
A.Unfortunately many expectant mothers do not take the necessary precautions in order to care for their unborn child.
B.To have a healthy baby, expectant mother must take special precautions.
C.An expectant mother should avoid alcohol during her pregnancy.
D.An expectant mother should be very careful about her medication.
1. Car thefts account for a quarter of all recorded crime. Together they impose costs on everyone—the cost of the police time taken up in dealing with the offenses, the cost of taking offenders through the criminal justice system, and the cost of increased insurance premiums. Over 460,000 cars are reported missing in this country each year and many of these are never recovered. Many of those which are found have been damaged by the thieves. A stolen car is also far more likely to be involved in an accident than the same car driven by its owner; car thieves are often young and sometimes drunk.
