At last, when it was the week 22 Christmas, and the shops were very crowded, he 23 that he could not wait any longer. He worked in an office, and 24 had lunch in a restaurant, but one day he bought some sandwiches, ate them quickly and went out to a big shop near his office during his lunch 25 .The shop was full of women, who were also buying presents during their lunch hour.Mr. West stood politely at the edge(边)of a crowd of women who were 26 forward to try to get to the people who were 27 necklaces and earrings. He tried to move forward slowly, taking his turn with the others, but more and more women were 28 into the shop the whole time and pushing selfishly past him.After half an hour, he was just as far from the people who were selling the necklaces as he had been 29 he came in, and his lunch hour was coming to an end, so he decided to change his 30 of doing things: he put his head down, 31 a sudden loud shout and started to push his way towards the 32 of the crowd as hard as he could.The women around him became very 33 when they saw what he was doing, and began to scold him.” Why cant you behave like a gentleman?” they shouted.“Ladies,” he 34 them,” I have been behaving like a gentleman for the past half hour, and it has done me no 35 ,so now I am starting to behave like a lady!”21A. sureB. certainC. ableD. possible22A. beforeB. afterC. tillD. within23A. promised B. decidedC. agreedD. insisted24A. never B. sometimesC. seldomD. usually25A. hourB. momentC. minuteD. second26A. pulling B. pushingC. gatheringD. managing27A. sellingB. buyingC. choosingD. seizing28A. goingB. enteringC. fetchingD. coming29A. whereB. untilC. whenD. even if30A. habitB. wayC. actionD. sign31A. caughtB. madeC. blewD. gave32A. centerB. endC. frontD. back33A. patientB. angryC. surprisedD. nervous34A. hatedB. wavedC. explainedD. answered35A. treasureB. goodC. respectD. present三阅读理解 （每小题2分，共 30分）AYour body, which has close relations with the food you eat, is the most important thing you own, so it needs proper treatment and proper nourishment(食物). The old saying “an apple a day keeps the doctor away.” is not as silly as some people think. The body needs fruit and vegetables because they contain vitamins. Many people take extra vitamins in pill form(丸剂), believing that these will make them healthy. But a good diet is made up of nutritive food and this gives all the vitamins you need. The body doesnt need or use extra vitamins, so why they waste money on them?In the modern Western world, many people are too busy to bother about eating properly. They throw anything into their stomachs, eating hurriedly and carelessly. The list of illnesses caused or made worse by bad eating habits is frightening.36The old saying referred to in the passage tells us that .A. eating apples regularly does lots of good to our health. B. the apple is the best among all kinds of fruits C. apples can take the place of doctors D. an apple is a sure cure for illness37In the second paragraph, the writer tries to let us know .A. our bodies need food, or we cant live B. often eating apples is a good habit C. taking extra vitamin pills is completely useless D. a good diet is of great importance for our health 38In the modern western countries .A. people wont want to pay more attention to their eating B. people throw everything into their stomachs without chewing.（咀嚼） C. many peoples illness are caused or made worse by bad eating habitsD. people are only too busy to cook meals for themselves 39 From the passage we can draw a conclusion that if we want to keep healthy, we should .A. only eat an apple a day B. take as many vitamin pills as possibleC. eat properly D. throw something into our stomachs slowly and carefully.BWhat will man be like in the future in 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now? We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today, for man is slowly changing all the time.Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively a short period of time, so we may suppose that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brains capacity(容量). As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and finally we shall need our brains more and more, and finally we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring a physical change too: the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over long period of time it is likely that mans eyes will grow stronger.On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald.Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and motions similar to our own.40The passage mainly tells us that _.A. Mans life will be different in the futureB. Future man will look quite different from usC. Man is growing taller and uglier as time passes D. Mans organs functions will change41What serves as the evidence that man is changing?A. Man has got stronger eyes now than he ever had.B. Mans hair is getting thinner and thinner.C. Mans arms and legs have become lighter and weaker.D. Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years.42The change in mans size of the forehead is probably because _.A. he makes use of only 20% of the brains capacityB. his brain has grown larger over the past centuriesC. he will use his brain more and more as time goes on D. the other 80% of his brain will grow in due time43Which of the following is TRUE about a human being in the future?A. He is hairless because hair is no longer useful.B. He has smaller eyes and wears better glasses.C. His fingers grow weaker because he doesnt have to make use of them.D. He thinks and feels in a different way.44It is implied（暗含）that _.A. human beings will become less attractive in the future B. body organs will become poorer if they are not used oftenC. human beings hope for a change in the future life D. future life is always predictableCWhy dont birds get lost on their long migratory (迁居的) flights? Scientists have puzzled over this question for many years. Now theyre beginning to fill in the blanks. Not long ago, experiments showed that birds rely on the sun to guide them during daylight hours. But what about birds that fly mainly by night? Tests with artificial stars have proved conclusively that certain night-flying birds are able to follow the stars in their long-distance flights. One such bird, a warbler(鸣禽) , had spent its lifetime in a cage and had never flown under a natural sky. Yet it showed an inborn（天生的） ability to use the stars for guidance. The birds cage was placed under an artificial star-filled sky at migration time. The bird tried to fly in the same direction as that taken by his outdoor cousins. Any change in the direction of the make-be-live stars caused a change in the direction of his flight. Scientists think that warblers, when flying in daylight, use the sun for guidance. But the stars are apparently their main means of navigation (导航). What do they do when the stars are hidden by clouds? Apparently, they find their way by such landmarks as mountain ranges, coast lines, and river courses. But when its too dark to see these, the warblers circle helplessly, unable to get their direction.45. The reasons why birds dont get lost on migratory flights _ . A. have been known to scientists for many years B. are known by everyone C. have only recently been discovered D. will probably remain a mystery46. The bird mentioned in this article _ . A. was caught and put in a cage by scientists B. was tamed（驯服） and tested by scientists C. had never flown under a natural sky D. was a bird that can speak47. Warblers migrate _ . A. from North America to South America B. using what is apparently an inborn navigational ability C. only once during their lifetime D. when they are freed from their cages48. When the stars are hidden by clouds, warblers find their way by _ . A. an artificial star B. some landmarks C. their inborn ability D. The moon D根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 Time is the most valuable thing that mankind has. Using every passing second effectively can benefit us. Many people try to manage their time. They arrange information and tips in order to effectively do so. _49_ Time can be managed easily by finding out what is important and arranging these things in the order of importance. In this way you know your direction before making any plans and do not waste time and energy unnecessarily. Now comes the next question._50_ The answer is that you need to find out what steps you need to take to do and what you want to do. Then you know how much time to spend for each thing. These steps are like goals. Setting goals is the most important part of time management. Not having them is like walking blindly in a dark room, trying to find the door. A. How do you manage time and what type of information is needed to do so ?B. Managing time is not that hard. C. Time is money. 第II卷 非选择题（共35分）第四部分: 写作(共三节, 满分35分) 第一节：单词拼写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）单词拼写(共10小题，分值为1分，共10分). 请根据句子逻辑, 从所学的词汇中选用恰当的单词并且使用其正确的形式填空。51.I went to the hotel to drop my _（行李）.52.That is why today over 40%of Californians speak_(西班牙语) as a first or second language.53.Religious leaders also raised_(道德) questions .54.Some began to reform their legal systems and _(禁止) research into human cloning. 55.Louis Armstrong is without any _ (怀疑)the most influential jazz musician of all time.56.A suitable habitat would be needed for them to lead a _(自然的)life. 57.H
