五、阅读理解（共15小题，计30分）
读下列短文，并做每篇短文后的题目。从四个选项中选出能回答所提问题或完成所给
句子的最佳答案。
A
"Ordinary" was the worst word my mother could find for anything. I remember her taking me
shopping and taking no notice of the shop assistants when they suggested that some dress
or pair of shoes was very popular -"we've sold fifty already this week". That was all she
needed to hear. "No", she would say, "we're not interested in that. Haven't you got something
a little more unusual?" And then the assistant would bring out all the strange colours no one
else would buy. And later she and I would argue because I wanted to be ordinary but my mother
wanted to be unusual.
"I can't stand that hairdo(发型)."she said, when I went to the hairdresser with my friend and
came back with a boy haircut, "It's so terribly ordinary." Not ugly, not unsuitable. But ordinary...
"Couldn't you please wear something else?" I asked one day when she was dressing for Parents' Day
in tight-fitting bullfighter's pants and a bright pink sweater.
"What's wrong with what I'm wearing?"
What wasn't wrong with it!
"It's just that I wish you'd wear something ordinary," I said , "something that people won't laugh at."
She looked at me angrily and then said ,"Are you ashamed of your own mother? If you are, Isadora, I feel sorry for you. I really do."

No one wants to look silly or do the wrong thing at a new job. It is important to make the right
impression(印象) from the very first day. You will face new people. You will be in a new place.
It may be difficult to know what to do. Here are five tips to help you make it through the first
days at a new job:
1.First impressions can last forever. Make sure you make a good one. Before your first day, find
out if your new job has a dress code (rules about what you can wear to work). If so, be sure to
follow it. No matter what, always be neat and clean.
2.Get to work on time. Give yourself an extra 15 minutes to make sure you arrive on time.
3.Pay attention to introductions. One of the first things that your supervisor may do is to introduce
you to co-workers. These co-workers will be important to you. They are the ones who will answer your
questions when the boss is not around.
4.Ask plenty of questions. Make sure that your supervisor has told you what is expected of you. If he
or she has not told you your duties, ask for a list. Set daily and weekly goals for yourself.
5.Never be the first one to leave. Observe what your co-workers do around quitting time (下班时间).
It does not look good for you to be eager to leave.
46. Before you arrive at work, you should __________.
A. dress in a right way B. introduce yourself
C. know your duties D. know your co-workers well
47. According to the passage, which of the following statements is True?

A. visitor B. teacher C. workmate D. leader

A. a duty B. a challenge C. an offer D. fun
50. What is the best title for this passage?
A. Getting a New Job B. Tips on How to Work
C. The First-day Work D. The Importance of Co-workers
C
Do you know that you can use your watch as a compass on a sunny day? Take a
watch and point the hour-hand in the direction of the sun. Imagine a line which runs from
the center of the watch through a point half-way between the hour-hand and number one.
This line will surely point south.
If you know astronomy a little, you will understand why this works. In
the northern half of the earth, the sun is in the south at noon. In our
country the real noon is one o'clock. If at that time we point the hour-hand
at the sun, the hour-hand and number one will point south. That is why you
must imagine a line which will run from the center of the watch through a
point half-way between the hour-hand and number one. It will point south. If you are in the southern
part of our planet, you must point number 12 at the sun. The line which you can imagine between number
twelve and the hour-hand will then show north.
51. When we carry out this experiment in the northern part of the earth,
we should point _____________ at the sun.
A.
number 12 B. the minute-hand
C. the hour-hand D. number one
52. What does the underlined word astronomy mean in the passage?
A. 天文学 B. 地理学 C. 宇航学 D. 逻辑学
53. The passage tells us that we can use a watch ____________on a sunny day.
A. as a time-keeper B. to show direction
C. to enjoy ourselves D. to keep good time
54. If you are in Australia, which of the following is the right way to
show north?
A. B. C. D.
55. What's the best title for this passage?
A. Your Watch Becomes a Compass B. An Interesting Watch
C. The Story of a Watch D. The Sun and a Watch
五、 词语填空 （共15小题，计15分）

Villagers are more healthy than people who live in towns. One reason for this is
that country air is 56 than the air in smoky 57 . The villager is 58

hardly keep our 65 open. Then our heads begin to ache, 66 the longer we
stay the worse we feel. How nice it is when we get 67 into the fresh air
outside!
We must, therefore, keep 68 windows open, so that air in our rooms is
always fresh and 69 as much as we can 70 the open air. For people who breathe bad air for a long time often get very ill and die of lung diseases.

I knew little about English when I first came to America. So I went to a language school
every day except Sunday to learn English. One day,
during the break I asked Alice, one of my classmates a question that I didn't understand.
When I thanked her for it, she said: "You are welcome.
It's a piece of cake." I thought to myself: America is really a country for money in which
everything is done for pay. So I said to her: "I haven't
taken any piece of cake with me today, what about something else?
She looked at me with a big smile, saying: "What I mean is, 'no problem',
and that it is only a small matter." From then on, I came to learn that
"a piece of cake" is not only a piece of cake but also means a thing that is very easy.

八、One possible version:
Mr Smith, it is a notice to the audience. It says that we should enter
the concert hall 30 minutes earlier before the concert starts. Entrance
to the hall is by ticket only, each one each ticket. As a rule, food
or drink should not be taken into the hall. Of course, smoking is not
allowed in the hall, too. Please don't bring your digital camera with
you because no photos can be taken during the concert. And what is
more, beepers and mobile phones must be kept off during the concert.
