第一节:阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项.
A
Stepping into a pool of water is common enough,but who could ever imagine stepping into a pool of fish? In February of 1974,Bill Tapp,an Australian farmer,saw a rain of fish that covered his farm.How surprised he must have been when he heard many fish hitting against his roof !
What caused this strange occurrence? This is a question that had long puzzled people who study fish.The answer turned out to be a combination of wind and storm.
When it is spring in the northern part of the world,it is fall in Australia.Throughout the autumn season,terrible storms arise and rains flood the land.The strong winds sweep over Australia like huge vacuum cleaners,collecting seaweed,pieces of wood,and even schools of fish.Strong winds many carry these bits of nature for many miles before vacuum dropping them on fields,houses,and astonished people.
Although they seem unusual,fish-falls occur quite frequently in Australia.When Bill Tapp was asked to describe the scene of fish,he remarked,“They look like millions of dead birds falling down.” His statement is not surprising.The wonders of the natural world are as common as rain.Nature,with its infinite wonders,can create waterfalls that flow upward and fish that fall out of the sky.
41.What is this passage about?
A.A sad story. B.A rain of fish.
C.Australia’s northern part. D.The damage done by floods.
42.Fish—falls occur in Australia ________.
A.quite often B.on large farms
C.only in winter D.when the air is calm

B.Bill Tapp is a scientist who studies farming
C.the natural world can never create waterfalls that fall upward

BEIJING,Nov.25,2005(Reuters)—China’s home-grown human bird flu vaccine is at least a year away from hitting the market but tests on humans have been approved (批准) by the government,head of the research drug company said on Friday.
Development of the vaccine started last year after bird flu outbreaks in Thailand and Vietnam and animal trials have already been completed,said Yin Wei-dong,managing director of Sinovac Biotech.
“It is not a virus that is spreading from human to human,so we are very optimistic,” Yin told Reuters in an interview.
The deadly H5N1 made its first known jump to humans in Hong Kong in 1997,killing six people.The virus appeared again in late 2003 and is known to have infected 130 people in several parts of Asia,killing 68 of them.
“It is not decided yet when the human trials will begin.We just got approval on November 22 by the State Food and Drug Administration,” Yin said.
Oregon,Nov.26,2005(AP)—The deadly strain of bird flu that appeared in Asia and has already spread to other parts of the world has not affected the Oregon poultry (家禽) industry or consumers,according to Oregon State University researchers.
There are many strains of bird flu that do not usually infect humans.But one strain,called H5N1,has jumped from chickens to humans and is blamed for more than 60 deaths in Asia.
International disease control experts are worried about a worldwide outbreak of bird flu,raising concerns such as whether it is safe to eat poultry.
But Oregon State University researchers say there is no proof that the virus can jump to humans by eating cooked poultry products.
“Consumers needn’t be overly concerned about bird flu,” said Jim Hermes,OSU Extension Service poultry specialist.But he urged consumers to follow standard food safety practices in preparing poultry—including washing hands while preparing food,and proper cooking of poultry meat and eggs.
He noted that a 2003 outbreak of bird virus caused much damage to commercial poultry operations in California but did not get into Oregon because of industry safeguards.
45.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the first news report?
A.Human trials have already started but not yet successful.
B.Bird flu killed 68 Asian people in its second outbreak.
C.The bird flu virus is not one that spreads from human to human.
D.The government has agreed to have the vaccine tried on humans.
46.What does the first news report mainly talk about?
A.The new outbreak of the bird flu.
B.How the development of the bird flu vaccine is going on.
C.How many people died of bird flu.
D.What measures the government has taken to stop the spreading of bird flu.
47.What does the underlined word “strains” probably mean?
A.signs. B.symbols. C.kinds. D.diseases.
48.What can we know from the second news report?
A.Because of the safety guards,Oregon poultry industry didn’t suffer any loss in
the 2003 outbreak of bird flu.
B.People in Oregon are not concerned about bird flu.
C.People will develop bird flu even if they eat well-cooked poultry products.
D.H5N1 has caused more than 60 deaths worldwide.
C
Everyone would like to be a millionaire but can you imagine having over $30 million and only being 20 years old? Britney Spears from Kentwood,a small town in Louisiana,is an international pop superstar with not only $30 million but also a $2 million house in LA.At her young age,she can look after her family financially all her life.
This year is a big year for Britney,she is currently on a 31 date tour of the US and every concert is a sell out.That means she plays in front of a crowd of around 18,000 every time.It’s a tiring schedule but brings great rewards.When touring,she goes to bed at around 1 a.m.and then has a lie-in until 1 p.m.or 2 p.m.the next day.Her philosophy (人生哲学) is to take care of the body and be relaxed but always make sure you work hard and have fun.
Spears is not satisfied with only touring and selling nearly 40 million records,so she decided to branch out into the movie business and try a bit of acting.She made an appearance in “Austin Powers 3” in 2002 and she filmed a teenage comedy that was released in 2003.In this movie,she had a starring role.The movie was her own concept and she picked the writer.
In spite of the fact that she has not enjoyed the same popularity as a pop singer so far,she insists on trying more roles.For Britney,acting is another way to express herself and she is enthusiastic about it all.If her movies are successful,her bank account is sure to grow by another few million dollars but she has been quoted as saying she does it for the love,not for money.
49.Tickets for Britney’s concert are ________.
A.booked in groups B.too expensive
C.not available D.all sold
50.The underlined word “you” in the second paragraph refers to _______.
A.a person in general B.a particular person
C.Britney herself only D.the reader
51.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Though young,Britney is a superstar both on the stage and screen
B.While touring,Britney is so tired that she has to sleep more than usual.
C.The teenage comedy was based on Britney’s own ideas.
D.Britney will be even more wealthy with her movies successful.
52.According to Britney Spears,she works _______.

C.to be more famous D.for the love of singing
D
Living and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days,but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher.
If I have learned anything in my 16 years,it is that communication is very important,both when you disagree and when you get along.With any relationship,you need to let the other person know how you are feeling.If you are not able to communicate,your relationship drifts apart.When you are mad at your parents or anyone else,not talking to them doesn’t solve anything.
Communication begins with the concerns of another.It means that you can’t just come home from school,go up to your room and talk to nobody.Even if you just say “Hi” and see how their day is for five minutes,it is better than nothing.
If you look up the word “communication” in the dictionary,it will say “the exchange of ideas,conveyance (传递) of information,correspondence (通信),means of communication;a letter or message”.To keep a good relationship,you must keep the communication strong.Let people know how you feel,even if it’s just by writing a note.
When dealing with parents,you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as parents.If you are trying to make them see something as you see it,tell them that you listen to what they have to say,but ask them politely to listen to you.Shouting or walking away only makes the situation worse.
Here is an example.One night,Sophie went to a street party with her friends.She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks.but they didn’t feel she could just ask to go home.That would be rude.After all,they had been nice enough to take her along with them.Needless to say,she was late getting home.Her parents were mad at first,but when Sophie explained why she was late,they weren’t as mad and let the incident go.Communication was the key factor here.If Sophie’s parents had not been willing to listen,Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble.
Communication isn’t a one-way deal.It goes both ways.Just remember:if you get into a situation like Sophie’s,telling the other person how you feel and listening are key factors to communication.
53.The second paragraph mainly talks about ________.
A.the importance of friendship
B.making your feelings known to others
C.the importance of communication
D.the disagreement between generations
54.The key to happy relationship between parents and children is that _______.
A.children should always obey their parents
B.parents play the leading part
C.parents should mind their own business
D.both should make the other know their feelings
55.The example in the passage proves that ________.
A.Sophie’s parents were willing to listen to her
B.Sophie was very polite to her parents
C.Sophie did the right thing when she explained the reason of her being late
D.communication is the key to solving misunderstanding
56.All of the following statements are true EXCEPT ________.
A.if you don’t agree with others,you’d better let them know
B.it is better to say “Hi” to others than to say nothing
C.if you are too busy to communicate,just walk away
D.communication is a two-way deal

Your mobile phone rings and instead of the usual electronic signals it’s playing your favourite music.A friend sends your favourite song to cheer you up.One day,a record company might forward new records and music videos to your phone.
The mobile business is getting into the music business.For the moment,the interest is in pleasant ring tones,but some companies are hoping to take full advantage of the next generation of mobile phones—all purpose gadgets that blend phone,personal stereo,video player and Internet browser into one.
Finally,record companies might send new records and videos to fans who register their cell phone numbers.
The fans could pass music or songs along to friends—a kind of musical trading card.Unlike Internet tracks,mobile downloads would be easy for record companies to control,said former record industry official Ralph,Simon,who is now chairman of Yourmobile,based in Santa Monic,California.
“If you pass a song along to other phones through a network,each phone can be charged,” said Simon.“It’s like going through toll gate (收费站).There’s more possibility for copyright control than there is on the Internet.”
Massachusetts-based Converse is offering service in Portugal and the Netherlands that lets people record tunes on their voice mail or send music as presents to friends.Finally,people might be able to sing karaoke and pass them along.The company is sure that people will want to use music to reach out and touch someone.
“A mobile phone is not a listening machine,and you’ll be disappointed if you think you can change it into a radio,” said Ouzel,a creative manager for Converse in Israel.“But if someone sends you a song while you’re on vacation,you appreciate the feeling.”
57.The underlined word “blend” in the second paragraph most probably means _____.
A.send B.come C.mix D.compare
58.“Massachusetts-based Converse”in the sixth paragraph probably refers to ______.
A.a person B.a city in Israel
C.a state of the USA C.a company
59.Record companies ______ the idea of passing songs and music along mobile phones.
A.are worried about B.are interested in
C.try hard to stop D.take no notice of
60.According to Ralph Simon it would be easier to _______ through mobile phone network than through the Internet.
A.protect copyright of music works B.send personal messages
C.pass along songs and music D.send voice mail
第二节:阅读下列材料, 并从所给的六个选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项。选项中有一项是多余选项。
The following people are expressing their thoughts (61-65) to show their concern for food, environment and so on. After that are pieces of related information (A-F). Now decide which piece of information would be most suitable for the thought and idea mentioned in questions 61-65 and mark your answer letter (A-F)on your answer sheet. There is one extra paragraph which you do not need to use.
____61. How I was struck by the clear water and fresh air in my childhood! But everything has changed, that is, the clear water and fresh air are nowhere to be found again as they were. Above all, a great deal of waste hardly rots away.
____62. More and more people are beginning to have a good knowledge of the importance of a safer and cleaner environment, which in turn forces the business to be cleaned up.
____63. Organic products are getting more and more popular among people, but we should know the fact that organic products might also have something to do with pesticides.
____64. I’m very much fond of growing some vegetables of my own in my small garden, for many vegetables on sale in markets are actually becoming more and more dangerous as a result of widespread pesticides.
____65. Nowadays it is very convenient for consumers to find and buy green food in supermarkets as they are clearly marked.
A.“Organic product is always better,” Gold said. “The food is free of pesticides (农药), and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms. And more often than not it is locally grown and seasonal, so it is more tasty.” Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend, and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business.
B.Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their preferences-but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete. For example, small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic products. And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported to meet growing demand. “The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year, so it is a very fast-growing market,” said Sue Flock, a specialist in this line of business.
C.Many cities around the world today are heavily polluted. Careless methods of production and lack of consumer demand for environment-friendly products have contributed to the pollution problem. One result is that millions of tons of glass, paper, plastic, and metal containers are produced, and these are difficult to get rid of.
D.However, today, more and more consumers are choosing “green” and demanding that the products they buy should be safe for the environment. Before they buy a product, they ask questions like these: “Will this shampoo damage the environment?” “Can this metal container be reused or can it only be used once?”
E.Only a few years ago, it was impossible to find green products in supermarkets, but now there are hundreds. Some supermarket products carry labels (标签) to show that the product is green. Some companies have made the manufacturing (制造) of clean and safe products their main selling point and emphasize it in their advertising.
F.The concern for a safer and cleaner environment is making companies rethink how they do business. No longer will the public accept the old attitude of “Buy it, use it, throw it away, and forget it.” The public pressure is on, and gradually business is cleaning up its act.

书面表达:
Failure is the mother of success
We middle school students have had many tests or exams. We have both achieved success and suffered from failure. Different students take different attitudes to failure. Some fall in low spirits when they don’t do well in the exams. They usually lose heart and no longer study as before. But most students take an active attitude towards failure. They encourage themselves to be serf-confident. They encourage themselves to be serf-confident. They found out and analyze the causese so that they will no longer make similar mistakes. I agree with those with active attitudes. As we all know, failure is the mother of success. Even great men have failed many times before they succeeded. So we must deal with our failure correctly.
