For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. (A) American parents usually think that their child （25） have less pocket money than the children whom he often connects with even if they are wealthier. And they dont expect their children to compare with the richer if some conditions make （26） impossible for the children to get the same pocket money （27） the children in the neighborhood. The pocket money is not controlled by the parents, because a child can learn to use money correctly （28 ） dealing with it himself. If a 7 year old child gets one dollar as a week pocket money and is made to put it all in his piggy bank to save it up, he cant know （29） the real use for the money is. The children can use part of his pocket money to buy something he especially wants. By the time he is eight, he is old enough that parents can take the child to the bank, （30） （open）a saving account for him, and encourage him to put a certain amount of his pocket money into the bank and watch his bank savings grow as entry by entry （存入）is made. He will be saving, earning, and spending suitable quantities all along in order to learn how （31） （manage） money and to keep him in a favorable position with his friends. If a boy cant join his fellows in a sweet shop once in a while because he has to save every cent he gets or earns for some big unknown project his parents have chosen for him, he is a sorry child. （B） Have you ever lain in the sun, _(32) (enjoy) the entertainment of reading a newspaper? Have you ever sat in an underground railway, killing your boring time by turning a newspaper? If you have made it, there is no doubt_ (33)_you may not deny the importance of newspapers as a popular medium. Newspapers provide us with great convenience. (34) the electric media like televisions and computers offers us another way to obtain information, their generation by electricity limits their uses indoors. On the other hand, newspapers may be carried (35) we plan to. In addition, their small size and light weight will surely spare our effort to take them. 2 _(36) advantage of newspapers lies in their non-pollution. It may be said without fear of exaggeration that almost all those electronic media do harm to peoples health. (37) (take) televisions for example: exposures to radiations (辐射), a kind of pollution, from them in the long run will damage peoples health, (38) (especial) for pregnant women. The same case can also be found in computers. Newspapers, by contrast, are made of natural materials. Therefore no pollution will be given off nor are people subjected to the risk of illness when they read a newspaper. It is true that electronic media also has some superior (39) newspapers. They can give us more direct information, not only by words but by sounds and pictures as well. But regarding newspapers as a medium of the past is (40) apparent understanding, far from the truth.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) Most people agree that honesty is a good thing. But does Mother Nature agree? Animals cant talk, but can they lie in other ways? Can they lie with their bodies and behavior? Animal experts may not call it lying, but they do agree that many animals, from birds to chimpanzees (黑猩猩), behave dishonestly to fool other animals. Why? Dishonesty often helps them survive. Many kinds of birds are very successful at fooling other animals. For example, a bird called the plover sometimes pretends to be hurt in order to protect its young. When a predator（猎食动 物）gets close to its nest, the plover leads the predator away from the nest. How? It pretends to have a broken wing. The predator follows the “hurt“ adult, leaving the baby birds safe in the nest. Another kind of bird, the scrub jay, buries its food so it always has something to eat. Scrub jays are also thieves. They watch where others bury their food and steal it. But clever scrub jays seem to know when a thief is watching them. So they go back later, unbury the food, and bury it again somewhere else. Birds called cuckoos have found a way to have babies without doing much work. How? They dont make nests. Instead, they get into other birds nests secretly. Then they lay their eggs and fly away. When the baby birds come out, their adoptive parents feed them. 5 Chimpanzees, or chimps, can also be sneaky. After a fight, the losing chimp will give its hand to the other. When the winning chimp puts out its hand, too, the chimps are friendly again. But an animal expert once saw a losing chimp take the winners hand and start fighting again. Chimps are sneaky in other ways, too. When chimps find food that they love, such as bananas, it is natural for them to cry out. Then other chimps come running. But some clever chimps learn to cry very softly when they find food. That way, other chimps dont hear them, and they dont need to share their food. As children, many of us learn the saying “You cant fool Mother Nature.“ But maybe you cant trust her, either. 66. A plover protects its young from a predator by_. A. pretending to be injured B. driving away the adult predator C. leaving its young in another nest D. getting closer to its young 67. By “Chimpanzees, or chimps, can also be sneaky“ (paragraph 5), the author means_. A. chimps are ready to attack others B. chimps are jealous of the winners C. chimps are sometimes dishonest D. chimps can be selfish too 68. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Some clever scrub jays often steal their food back. B. The losing chimp won the fight by taking the winners hand. C. Cuckoos fool their adoptive parents by making no nests. D. Some chimps lower their cry to keep food away from others. 69. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage? A. How do animals learn to lie? B. Does Mother Nature fool animals? C. Do animals lie? D. How does honesty help animals survive? （B） “My kids really understand solar and earth-heat energy,” says a second-grade teacher in Saugus, California. “Some of them are building solar collectors for their energy course.” These young scientists are part of City Building Educational Program (CBEP), a particular program for kindergarten through twelfth grade that uses the stages of city planning to teach basic reading, 6 writing and math skills, and more. The children dont just plan any city. They map and analyze the housing, energy, and transportation requirements of their own district and predict its needs in 100 years. With the aid of an architect who visits the classroom once a week, they invent new ways to meet these needs and build models of their creations. “Designing buildings of the future gives children a lot of freedom,” says the teacher who developed this program. “They are able to use their own rich imagination and inventions without fear of blame, because there are no wrong answers in a future context. In fact, as the class enters the final model-building stage of the program, an elected “official” and “planning group” makes all the design decisions for the model city, and the teacher steps back and becomes an adviser.” CBEP is a set of activities, games and imitations that teach the basic steps necessary for problem-solving: observing, analyzing, working out possible answers, and judging them based on the childrens own standards. 70. The Program is designed to _. A. develop childrens problem-solving abilities B. train young scientists for city planning C. direct kids to build solar collectors D. train kids to be future architects 71. An architect pays a weekly visit to the classroom to _. A. find out kids creative ideas B. help kids with their program C. give children lectures D. discuss with the teacher 72. Who is the designer of the program? A. A teacher. B. An architect. C. An official. D. A scientist. 73. The children feel free in the program because they _. A. can design future buildings themselves B. need not worry about making mistakes C. are given enough time to design models D. have new ideas and rich imagination (C) Stonehenge（巨石阵）may have been a prehistoric health center rather than a site for observing stars or a temple in honor of the dead, scientists said yesterday. New evidence 7 unearthed at the World Heritage Site in more than 40 years suggests that the monument was a place where the diseased and injured went in groups, seeking cures. After a two-week dig, scientists have concluded that Stonehenge was “the ancient healthcare centre of southern England” because of the existence of “bluestones”-the smaller columns of dolerite（辉绿岩）that formed an earlier stone structure. By dating pieces of remains to around 7330BC, Tim Darvill, of Bournemouth University, and Goff Wainwright, of the Society of Amtiquaries have found that hunter-gatherers were at the site on Salisbury Plain 4,000 years earlier than thought. The first stage of Stonehenge, a round earthwork structure, was built around 3000BC. Professor Wainwright added: “I did not expect the degree of complexity we discovered. Were able to say so much more about when Stonehenge was built and why-all of which changes our previous understanding of the monument.” The research reveals the importance of the henges famous bluestones. Hundreds of bluestone chips gathered at the site have led the team to conclude that the bluestones were valued for their curing effects-the key reason that about 80 of them, each weighing up to 4 tons and a half, were dragged more than 150 miles from the Preseli Hills to Wiltshire. After years of research, Professors Darvill and Wainwright have concluded that, for thousands of years, the Preseli mountain range was home to magical health centers and holy wells. Even today there are those who believe in the curing powers of the springs for coughs and heart disease, and people who use crystals and bluestones for self-curing. Radiocarbon tests have also revealed that the construction of the original bluestone circle took place around 2300BC, three centuries later than originally thought. Interestingly, on the same day died the “Amesbury Archer”-a sick traveler from the Swiss or German Alps who had an infected knee-whose remains were discovered about five miles from Stonehenge. The professors believe that he was a devoted religious person who was hoping to benefit from the curing powers of the monument. 74Stonehenge is recently believed to be a place for people . Ato recover from poor health Bto observe star movements Cto hold religious ceremonies Dto gather huge bluestones 75What can be inferred about Stonehenge from the passage? AThe springs could cure coughs and heart disease best. BThe new discovery was the same as what had been expected. 8 CSome huge bluestones were not produced at Stonehenge. DThe original bluestone circle was thought to be constructed around 2000BC. 76The sick traveler in the passage is supposed to be . Aa devoted religious person from Stonehenge Bone of the earliest discoverers of Stonehenge Cthe first explorer to test the magical power of bluestones Da patient trying to cure his infection at Stonehenge 77Which of the following might be the best title for the passage? AStonehenge: A New Place of Interest BStonehenge: Still Making News CStonehenge: Heaven for Adventurers DStonehenge: Still Curing Patients Section C Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words. More and more corporations are taking an interest in corporate social responsibility (CSR). CSR is made up of three broad layers. The most basic is traditional corporate charity work. Companies typically spend about 1% of pre-tax profits on worthy projects. But many feel that simply writing cheques to charities is no longer enough. In some companies, shareholders want to know that their money is being put to good use, and employees want to be actively involved in good works. Money alone is not the answer when companies come under attack for their behavior. Hence the second layer of CSR, which is a branch of risk management. Starting in the 1980s, with environmental disasters such as the explosion at Bhopal and the Exxon Valdez oil spill, industry after industry has suffered blows to its reputation. So, companies often responded by trying to manage the risks. They talk to non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and to governments, create codes of conduct（行为准则) and devote themselves to more transparency（透明）in their operations. Increasingly, too. they, along with their competitors, set common rules to spread risks. All this is largely defensive, but there are also opportunities for those that get ahead of the game. The emphasis on opportunity is the third layer of CSR: the idea that it can help to create value. If approached in a strategic way, CSR could become part of a companys competitive 9 advantage. That is just the sort of thing chief executives like to hear. The idea of “doing well by doing good“ has become popular. Nevertheless, the business of trying to be good is bringing difficult questions to executives. Can you measure CSR performance? Should you be cooperating with NGOs and youre your competitors? Is there any really competitive advantage to be had from a green strategy? Corporate social responsibility is now seen as a mainstream. Big companies want to tell the world about their good citizens
