阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为31—40的相应位置上。
Most students do an IQ text early in their school career. Even if they never see their results, they feel that their IQ is 31 determines how well they are going to do in life. When they see other students doing 32 than them, they usually believe that those students have 33 higher IQ and 34 there is nothing they can do to change facts. However, new research 35 EQ suggests that success is not simply result of a high IQ.
While your IQ tells you how 36 (intelligence) you are, your EQ tells you how well you use your intelligence. Professor Salovery, 37 invented the term EQ, gives the following description: At work, it is IQ 38 gets you promoted. Supported by his academic research, Professor Salovery suggests that when 39 (predict) someone’s future success, their character, 40 measured by EQ tests, might actually matter more than their IQ.

第一节 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
A
It has long been known the ancient Egyptian rulers, or pharaohs, were buried with great ceremony and lavish treasures that were to be used in the other world.
Unfortunately, until 1922 no remains of any of the pharaohs or their treasures had ever been found. In that year, however, an archaeologist named Howard Carter and his sponsor, Lord Carnavon, were at last successful. They found the tomb of King Tutankhamen, who was buried 3,200 years ago. King Tut’s tomb was the first fully preserved burial site to be uncovered in Egypt’s Valley of the Kings. The two men found the tomb to contain wonderful treasures. Gold figures and magnificent furniture decorated with gold were found in the myriad of secret rooms and tunnels within the pyramid.
The only disappointment for Howard Carter came when he found that King Tut’s body was nothing but dust. Apparently a mistake had been made when the king’s remains were mummified (使成木乃伊). Carter did, however, find 143 pieces of jewelry within the mummy case, mostly made of gold and precious stones.
Actually, despite all the publicity about the remarkable finds in his tomb, Tutankhamen’s reign (统治时期) as pharaoh was short and relatively uneventful. He died when he was just 18 years old.
There is an interesting story that goes along with King Tut’s tomb. According to legend, a powerful curse was placed in it. This curse was to descend on anyone uncovering Tutankhamen’s burial place. Not very long after the discovery, Lord Carnavon, along with sevcral of the workmen, died suddenly.
41．The subject of this passage is .
A．the Valley of the Kings
B．the discovery of King Tut’s tomb
C．King Tut’s accomplishments
D．Howard Carter, archaeologist
42．Which statement is true according to this article?
A．Not until King Tut’s tomb was found did people realize that Egyptian pharaohs were buried with great ceremony and lavish treasures.
B．The first grand burial site of the ancient Egyptian rulers was built 3,200 years ago.
C．Historically, Tutankhamen’s reign was not very much important.
D．The writer feels it a pity that Lord Carnavon and several of the workmen died because of the curse.
43．It seems clear that King Tut .
A．was a great military leader B．thought a great deal of himself
C．was afraid of dying D．was killed by his enemies
44．If you have a myriad of something, you have .
A．many B．some C．few D．several
45．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A．King Tut’s Tomb B．The Egyptian Tombs and Treasures
C．King Tut’s body D．The First Pharaoh’s Treasures
B
When it’s 10:15 in New York, it’s 9:15 in Salt Lake City, and 7:15 in San Francisco – isn’t it? This consistent and orderly time system, based on a grid of time zones, seems so natural that people rarely give it a moment’s thought. So you may find it surprising to learn that prior to the late 1800s each community established its own time – by looking at the sun. When the sun shone directly overhead in Washington, D.C., for example, it was 12:00 noon there; up the road in Philadelphia, however, it was 12:07, and in Boston it was 12:24. To measure time with absolute accuracy, it is necessary to move the clock about one minute for every twelve miles of distance; so according to “sun time” your pocket watch would be slightly incorrect if you ventured only a few miles down the road.
It was not until the advent of widespread railroad travel that a need arose for regularized time. At one point over 300 local times were honored within the country, making it literally impossible for trains to arrive consistently on time everywhere. As a result, in 1883 the continental, United States was divided into four time longitude. The standardization resulting from this system proved so helpful that in 1884 the International Meridian Conference applied the same procedure to establish time zones around the world. Thus, if it is 11:07 p.m. in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, a little simple research will quickly determine that in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, it is 9:07 A.M. – and not 9:15.
46．This passage is organized as .
A．a personal narrative B．a problem and a solution
C．a spatial (空间的) description D．a persuasive essay
47．Before the 1880s, each town .
A．had its own train station
B．had the same time as towns 20 or more miles away
C．believed that a system of regulating time was needed
D．established its own time by the sun
48．The distance between Washington, D.C., and Philadelphia must be .
A．more than 75 miles B．more than 150 miles
C．more than 200 miles D．more than 300 miles
49．The cause of the regularized time is .
A．International Meridian Conference B．the sun time
C．the widespread railroad travel D．the continental US
50．The time zones around the world were used .
A．in 1883 B．in early 1800s C．before 1800s D．in 1884
C
Have you seen the film Star Wars? If you have, you’ll know what an evergy – gun is, and a light – sword too. The gigantic space ship in Star Wars can destroy a whole planet in a second or two, and it does so. Fortunately, it isn’t our planet; it belongs to a distant system, far out in space.
The great empty spaces of the universe are no problem in star Wars. The fighters know how to fold space over, like a sheet of paper, so that very distant stars are brought close together; they call it “hyperspace”. This means, of course, that their ships don’t have to creep along at the speed of light. If they did that, they would take years, even centuries, to reach the battlefield. Hyperspace allows them to travel as “supralight” speed and get there in a couple of hours. It’s good clean fun (健康无害的娱乐) though.
We certainly don’t know all about physics yet, but we do have the work of Albert Einstein. He asked us to believe that nothing could travel faster than light through an empty space – but don’t let that miserable idea spoil the film for you, even though all our observations up to now have shown that Einstein was dead right – forget it. Sit back and watch those energy – shells blow up the hated enemy. The Star Wars princess is extremely beautiful.
The more we “discover”, the more we must admire Einstein. He knew it all before us – by about 1910 in fact. We observe certain very high speed particles (微粒), and they behave exactly as Einstein predicted they would. We can give them a speed almost equal to light, but they never quite reach light speed. He predicted that a very fast – moving object, as it flashed by a stationary (静止的) observer, would seem to have much greater weight than usual. And that, too, was proved correct.
So far as scientific theory or evidence is concerned, there is no such thing as hyperspace, no such speed as supralight. Space is as we know it, and light speed is the highest possible speed. “But,” say the story – writers, “that’s only true at present. We don’t know all about physics yet. Who knows – who knows if there isn’t another set of facts just waiting to be discovered; another universe perhaps, just round the corner?”
Einstein seems to have been prepared for that too. In his theories he emphasized the word “relative”. Everything – speed, weight, time, etc. – is relative to something else. Nothing, by itself is real or absolute. So it there is another universe somewhere, we shall only know about it relative to ourselves. So far there’s no sign of it. But for the future, well, who knows?
51．What is the purpose of science – fiction stories and films?
A．They point out the way ahead, and scientists are grateful.
B．They encourage us in our searching for the truth.
C．They show us what the future universe will be like.
D．They are written and made to entertain us.
52．If you see Star Wars, what might spoil it for you, according to the passage?
A．Einstien’s theories.
B．The uncomfortable surroundings of the theatre.
C．The ugly actress and actors.
D．The rude audience.
53．The increase in weight that Einstein predicted
A．applies only to big things, like huge space - ships
B．is apparent only to the stationary observer
C．is a real increase
D．remains even after the objective has stopped moving
54．Einstein’s theories emphasized .
A．everything is relative to something else
B．the universe is infinite
C．light speed is the highest possible speed
D．there is another universe somewhere
55．Although Einstein did not observe the behavior of high – speed objects, .
A．his theories predicted they travels at light speed
B．his theories predicted them with great accuracy
C．he knew they would be discovered
D．he predicted them in the year 1910

阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
Nowadays, the pressures on schools and teachers are often passed on to students and parents. Students are tested more and assigned more homework. In the past 15 years, homework assignments have risen by 51% according to a 2006 study. That is an average of 12 extra hours of homework per week!
Excessive homework often leaves no time for students to have fun or do something for themselves. Many parents spend at least three hours every night going through their children’s homework.
However, the governments’ efforts to cut the homework burden of primary and middle school students have drawn mixed reactions. Ironically, though teachers have been widely criticized for piling on homework, it is sometimes parents who ask for more work for their children! When teachers don’t give homework, some parents will go to the school and complain. They want teachers to assign homework every day as a means of making sure teachers do their job and the children have work to do.

Homework or No Homework?
Today, both students and parents are suffering from excessive homework. However, while the government is trying to relieve students’ burden, some parents complain about the small amount of homework and ask for more.
Personally, I don’t think the function of homework can be ignored. Homework is a means for teachers to find out whether or not their students understand the lessons. What’s more, practice makes perfect. The more questions they practice, the less painful they feel during exams. To some extent, minimizing the amount of homework may encourage students to be lazy.
However, excessive homework is harmful. Students cannot enjoy their leisure time which is occupied by countless assignments and sometimes they have to copy homework from each other in order to finish it on time. All work and no play makes John a dull boy. Students should have more time for leisure activities like reading and sports.
On balance, homework is necessary but the amount must not be a burden for students.
