I will take the 9:30 flight on Tuesday. Agent: A seat on Flight 807 to Boston 9:30 Tuesday morning. Is it all right, sir? Caller: Certainly.
[解析] 空格前的I am sorry证明服务员在查询之后要告知不好的信息，那就是票订满了。故本题选A，其中be booked up意思是“订满了”。
3.
B
[解析] 空格后讲到“单程为176美元”，可知空格处问的是票价(fare)的问题，故选B。
Section B Directions:In this section there is one incomplete interview which has four blanks and four choices A, B, C and D, taken from the interview. Fill in each of the blanks with one of the choices to complete the interview and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET. A. And that variation can affect the standards of the whole country B. Is it really worth that much C. How did you check the scales before D. What would you like to know Interviewer: Dr. Thomas? I'd like to ask you some questions about the new official standard weight that you purchased. Dr. Thomas: I'd be happy to help you. 1 ? Interviewer: First of all, how was the standard weight used? Dr. Thomas: Well, the people in our department use it to check the scales all over the country. The department of weights and measures, we are a government agency. It's our responsibility to see that all the scales measure a kilogram accurately so this is the way we used to adjust the scales. Interviewer: 2 ? Dr. Thomas: We have an old standard weight that we used to use. It had to be replaced because it was imprecise. You see it was made of poor quality metal and absorbed too much moisture. Interviewer: So when the weather was humid it weighed more and when it was dry it weighed less. Dr. Thomas: Exactly. 3 . So our department had the new weight made out of higher quality metal. Interviewer: How much did it cost? Dr. Thomas: About 45,000 dollars. Interviewer: 45,000 dollars? For one kilogram weight? That's more expensive than gold. 4 ? Dr. Thomas: I'm sure it is. Industries depend on our government agency to monitor the accuracy of scales so that when they buy and sell their products there is one standard. Think of the drug industry, for example, those companies rely on high accuracy scales to manufacture and package medicine.
1.
D
[解析] Dr. Thomas被采访，表示很高兴帮助采访者，按照语义，这里应该填入“您想知道什么”最合适，同时也符合问句的要求，由此确认D是最佳答案。
[解析] Dr. Thomas说以前称重标准物是由劣质金属做的，容易吸收湿气。采访者由此判断when the weather was humid it weighed more and when it was dry it weighed less(天气潮湿的时候，就重一些，天气干燥的时候就轻一些)。Dr. Thomas表示赞成并总结这个变化会影响全国的标准。故A为正确答案。
Part Ⅱ Vocabulary Directions:In this section, there are 10 sentences with one word or phrase underlined.

C.opposed
D.unwilling
A B C D
D
[解析] anxious“担忧的，渴望的”；curious“好奇的，古怪的”；opposed“反对的，敌对的”；unwilling“不愿意的，勉强的”。reluctant“勉强的，不情愿的”，be reluctant to do something意为“不愿意做某事”，所以选unwilling最合适，be unwilling to do something意为“不愿意做某事”。

Section A Directions:In this section, there are four passages followed by questions or unfinished statements, each with four suggested answers A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.
Passage One The rich have traditionally passed their wealth on to their children. But an increasing number of billionaires are choosing not to. The reason? They want their children to live on themselves—and not to turn into spoiled successors. Nicola Horlick or "supermom", a famous British billionaire, owing to the fact that she has high-flying jobs and five kids—has spent her career making a report ￡250m. She now seems determined to throw off large parts of it. She already gives away about 25% of her income each year; she has just revealed, in a report on the state of charity in the city, that she will not be leaving most of the remainder to her children. "I think it is wrong to give too much inherited wealth to children," Horlick told the report's authors. "I will not be leaving all my wealth to my children because that would just ruin their lives." She is by no means the first to go public with this convition. Bill Gates has put an estimated $30bn into the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. This was supplemented, in 2009, by another $24bn or so from his friend Warren Buffett. Buffett has always been colorful, quotably clear on where he stands. His daughter often tells a story of finding herself without change for a car parking ticket—her father lent her $20, then promptly made her write him a check. "To suggest that the children of the wealthy should be just as wealthy," he has said, "is like saying the members of America's 2004 Olympic team should be made up only of the children of the 1980 Olympic team." Antia Roddick, the late founder of the Body Shop, told her kids that they would not inherit one penny. The money that she made from the company would go into the Body Shop Foundation, which isn't one of those awful tax shelters, like some in America. It just functions to take the money and give it away.
1. The billionaires mentioned in the passage don't want to leave much of their wealth to their children because ______.
A.they prefer to give their wealth to charity
B.they want their business to go on healthily
C.they believe too much wealth will harm their children
D.they hope their children can make more money themselves
A B C D
C
[解析] 由“I will not be leaving all my wealth to my children because that would just ruin their lives.”可知，这位亿万富翁不想留给孩子大量财产是因为她认为留太多财产会毁了孩子的生活。故答案为C。
2. What do we learn about Nicola Horlick?
A.She has already given away about 25% of her wealth.
B.She is the first one who declares to give away her wealth.
C.She will leave only a small portion of her wealth to her kids.
D.She inherited most of her wealth from her parents.
A B C D
C
[解析] 由“she will not be leaving most of the remainder to her children”可知，她将给孩子留一小部分财产。故答案为C。
3. Buffett distinguishes himself for ______.
A.his clear-cut position
B.being strict with his children
C.his talent in financial management
D.being a giant in the stock market
A B C D
A
[解析] 由“Buffett has always been colorful, quotably clear on where he stands.”可知，Buffett是一个立场鲜明的人。故答案为A。
4. According to Buffett's daughter, her father ______.
Passage Two Much has been written about poverty but none of the accounts seem to get at the root of the problem. It must be noted that the debilitating effects of poverty are not only the result of lack of money but are also the result of powerlessness. The poor are subject to their social situation instead of being able to affect it through action, that is, through behavior that flows from an individual's decisions and plans. In other words, when social scientists have reported on the psychological consequences of poverty, it seems reasonable to believe that they have described the psychological consequences of powerlessness. The solution to poverty most frequently suggested is to help the poor secure more money without otherwise changing the present power relationships. This appears to implement the idea of equality while avoiding any unnecessary threat to the established centers of power. But since the consequences of poverty are related to powerlessness, not to the absolute supply of money available to the poor, and since the amount of power purchasable with a given supply of money decreases as a society acquires a large supply of goods and services, the solution of raising the incomes of the poor is likely, unless accompanied by other measures, to be ineffective in a wealthy society. In order to reduce poverty—related psychological and social problems in the United States, the major community will have to change its relationship to neighborhoods of poverty in such fashion that families in the neighborhoods have a greater interest in the broader society and can more successfully participate in the decision-making process of the surrounding community. Social action to help the poor should have the following characteristics: the poor should see themselves as the source of the action; the action should effect in major ways the preconceptions of institutions and persons who define the poor; the action should demand much in effect or skill; the action should be successful and the successful self-originated important action should increase the feeling of potential worth and individual power of individuals who are poor. The only initial resource which a community should provide to neighborhoods of poverty should be on a temporary basis and should consist of organizers who will enable the neighborhoods quickly to create powerful, independent, democratic organizations of the poor. Through such organizations, the poor will then negotiate with the outsiders for resources and opportunities without having to submit to concurrent control from outside.
1. By "powerless" (sentence 2, Para 1), the author most probably means that the poor ______.
A.have no right to make individual decisions and plans
B.can not exercise control over other groups of people
C.are not in a condition to change their present situation
D.are too weak to resist any social situation imposed on them
2. The author expresses his opinion in the first paragraph that ______.
A.the hopeless condition of the poor is caused by their powerlessness rather than lack of money
B.great efforts should be made to help poor to secure more money without changing present power relationships
C.it is no use raising the incomes of the poor while not improve their state of powerlessness
D.in helping the poor attention should be paid to avoiding any unnecessary threat to the established centers of power
A B C D
C
[解析] 在文章第一段中，作者认为，“帮助穷人确保挣更多的钱而不改变目前的权力关系”这种方法可能不会产生效果。C项中说“it is no use raising the incomes of the poor while not improve their state of powerlessness”，这与作者的观点相符。故答案为C。
3. Social action to help the poor should have the characteristics include ______.
A.the poor should see themselves as the source of the action
B.the action should effect in major ways preconceptions of institutions
C.the action should demand much in effect or skill
D.all of the above
A B C D
D
[解析] 由第二段第二句“Social action to help the poor should have the following characteristics: the poor should see themselves as the source of the action；the action should effect in major ways the preconceptions of institutions and persons who define the poor；the action should demand much in effect or skill”可知，答案为D。
4. According to the author, the primary role of the major community in helping the neighborhoods of poverty is ______.
A.to provide long-term assistance from outside
B.to offer necessary opportunities of securing more money
C.to carry out more social programs in the neighborhoods
D.to lend experienced advice in the formation of democratic self-help organizations
Passage Three Someday a stranger will read your e-mail without your permission or scan the Websites you've visited, or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits. In fact, it's likely some of these things have already happened to you. Who would watch you without your permission? It might be a spouse, a girlfriend, a marketing company, a boss, a cop or a criminal. Whoever it is, they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen—the 21st century equivalent of being caught naked. Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, that it's important to reveal yourself to friends, family and lovers in stages, at appropriate times. But few boundaries remain. The digital bread crumbs (碎屑) you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are, where you are and what you like. In some cases, a simple Google search can reveal what you think. Like it or not, increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret. The key question is: Does that matter? For many Americans, the answer apparently is "no". When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it. A survey found an overwhelming pessimism about privacy, with 60 percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is "slipping away, and that bothers me". But people say one thing and do another. Only a tiny fraction of Americans change any behaviors in an effort to preserve their privacy. Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths (收费站) to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements. And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards. Privacy economist Alessandro Acquisti has run a series of tests that reveal people will surrender personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon (优惠券). But privacy does matter—at least sometimes. It's like health: When you have it you don't notice it. Only when it's gone do you wish you'd done more to protect it.
1. Why does the author list several cases that your information can be accessed without your permission?
A.To introduce the topic.
B.To remind the importance of privacy.
C.To inform what 21st century is like.
D.To call for the action against the spread of website.
3. What would psychologists advise on the relationships between friends?
A.Friends should open their hearts to each other.
B.Friends should always be faithful to each other.
C.There should be a distance even between friends.
D.There should be fewer disputes between friends.
A B C D
C

Passage Four DNA testing reveals the genes of each individual person. Since the early twentieth century scientists have known that all human characteristics are contained in a person's genes and are passed from parents to children. Genes work as a chemical instruction manual for each part and each function of the body. Their basic chemical element is called DNA, a copy of which can be found in every cell. The existence of genes and the chemical structure of DNA were understood by the mid-1900s, but scientists have only recently been able to identify a person from just a drop of blood or a single hair. One of the most important uses of DNA testing is in criminal investigation. The very first use of DNA testing in a criminal ease was in 1985 in Great Britain, when a man confessed to killing a young woman in the English countryside. Because police had found samples of the killer's DNA at the scene of the crime, a biologist suggested that it might he possible to compare that DNA to some from the confessor's blood. To everyone's surprise, the tests showed that he was not the killer. Nor was he guilty of a similar murder that had happened some time earlier. At that point he admitted that he had confessed to the crimes out of fear and police pressure. The police then asked 5,000 local men for samples of their blood, and DNA testing revealed that one of them was the real murderer, so the first man was set free. In 1992, two law professors, Peter Neufeld and Barry Scheck, decided to use DNA evidence to help set free such mistakenly convicted prisoners. With the help of their students, they created a not-for-profit organization called the Innocence Project. Most of their clients are poor men, many from racial and ethnic minorities. In fact, studies have shown that U. S. judges and juries are often influenced by racial and ethnic background, and that people from minority groups are more likely to be convicted. Some of these men had been sentenced to death, a form of punishment used in thirty eight states out of fifty (as of 2006). For most of these prisoners, their only hope was another trial in which DNA testing could be used to prove their innocence. Between 1992 and 2006, the Innocence Project helped free 100 men. Some of these prisoners had been in jail for ten, twenty years or more for crimes they did not commit. However, the goal of the Innocence Project is not simply to set free those who are wrongfully in jail. They also hope to bring about real changes in the criminal justice system. Illinois in the late 1990s, a group of journalism students at Northwestern University were able to bring about such a change in that state. They began investigating some Illinois prisoners who claimed to be innocent. Through DNA testing, the students were able to prove that in fact the prisoners were not guilty of the crimes they had been accused of. Thirteen of these men were set free, and in 2000, Governor Ryan of Illinois decided to stop carrying out death sentences until further study could be made of the prisoners' cases. The use of DNA in criminal cases is still being debated around the world. Some fear that governments will one day keep records of everyone's DNA, which could put limits on the privacy and freedom of citizens. Other people mistrust the science of DNA testing and think that lawyers use it to get their clients free whether or not they are guilty. But for those whose innocence has been proven and who are now free men, DNA testing has meant nothing less than a return to life. And with the careful use of DNA testing, no innocent person should ever be convicted again.
1. What is the main idea of this passage?
A.DNA testing has changed the American legal system.
B.DNA testing has helped innocent men go free in Illinois.
C.DNA testing uses genetics to identify a person.
D.DNA testing has played a key role in criminal investigation.

Whether you are a student or a happy parent, I hope your advice will work for me. Welcome you to share your own tricks on how you wake up (or help your kids wake up) early for school!" Advice 1: One of the rules I put into place for my experiment was the rule that I could not use the snooze button, ever! When you hit the snooze on your alarm you are allowing your mind to wake up gradually. This may slow down your productivity and energy... Advice 2: This smart simple tip was found in the list of 52 Proven Stress Reducers. What this tip means is that first of all you need at least two alarm clocks. You will be using one alarm clock in a usual way—for waking yourself up in the morning. But you will set another alarm clock for the time when you have to go to bed. Advice 3: There is another great self-improvement tip which some people often neglect and which you can use to advance in any area and not just to learn how to wake yourself up early in the morning. And the tip is simple: get a dog, it will help you to wake up early. Advice 4: How to wake yourself up in the morning? Get a pet to do it? Okay, getting a pet BECAUSE you want to wake up early is a wrong thing. Do not do it. Never ever get a pet unless you love pets and unless you know you can take care of them. Pets are like kids—if you get one, you will have full responsibility for its health and life. Advice 5: We continue our quest to find the best ways on how to wake up early in the morning and do it consistently. If you search the web for "how to wake up early" or "alarm clocks" keywords combination you will definitely find Vincent Cheung's article Alarm clocks are bad and how to wake up and feel better.

Part Ⅵ Translation Directions:Translate the following passage into Chinese. Write your translation on the ANSWER SHEET.
1. Globally, most smokers start smoking before the age of 18, with almost a quarter of those beginning before the age of 10. The younger children are when they first try smoking, the more likely they are to become regular tobacco users and the less likely they are to quit. A strong link between advertising and smoking in young people has been proven. The more aware and appreciative young people are of tobacco advertising, the more likely they are to smoke or say they intend to. In response to this threat, World No Tobacco Day campaigns for a total ban on all forms of tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship by the tobacco industry.
1. Directions:You are to write in no less than 150 words based on the following picture. In your essay, you should 1. Describe the cartoon briefly, 2. Interpret the social phenomenon reflected by the cartoon, and 3. Give your point of view.
礼貌与公德何在?
[参考范文] There are many wonderful concerts and dramas to choose from in Beijing now. But badly behaved audience can sometimes spoil the show. As is depicted in the cartoon, a singer star is giving a performance, but one of the spectators suddenly stands up, answering his mobile phone loudly. Then the audience gets angry about his impolite behavior. It is obvious that the guy lacks public morality. The picture really sets me thinking. Now there are some young people who disregard and even ignore basic theatre etiquette. For example, when they go to a classical concert, they don't dress properly. As a rule, men need to wear a suit and ladies a dress on such occasions. Jeans and T-shirts and slippers are a strict "no". In addition, there are also people who tend to arrive late, which distract both the performers and the audience. It often happens that some of the playgoers are inclined to whisper, thus disturbing others. So it is better to be quiet and save conversation for the interval or once the show is over. In my opinion, every one of us should do his part to safeguard public morals and try hard to improve them. Only in this way will we have a society where all of us live in complete harmony.
