1、Travel Across AfricaFｏｒsix hours we shot through the barren (荒芜的) landscape of the Karoo desert in South Africa. Just rocks ａｎｄ　sａｎｄ　ａｎｄ　baking sun. Knowing our journey was ending, Daniel ａｎｄ　I just wanted to remember all we had seen ａｎｄ　done. He used a camera. I used words. I had already finished three notebooks ａｎｄ　was into the fourth, a beautiful leather notebook I\'d bought in a market in Mozambique.Southern Africa was full of stories ａｎｄ　visions. We were almost drunk on sensations. The roaring (咆哮) of the water at Victoria Falls, the impossible silence of the Okavango Delta in Botswana.ａｎｄ　then the other things, dogs in the streets, whole families in Soweto livng in one room, a kilometre from clean water.As we drove towards the setting sun, a quietness fell over us. The road was empty ａｎｄ　we hadn\'t seen another car fｏｒhours. ａｎｄ　as I drove, something caught my eye. Something moved close enough to touch them, to smell their hot breath. I didn\'t know how long they had been there next to us.I shouted to Dan: "Look!" But he was in a deep sleep, his camera lying useless by his feet. They raced the car fｏｒa few seconds, then disappeared far behind us, a memory of heroic forms in the red landscape. When Daniel woke up an hour later I told him what had happened."Wild horses?" he said. "Why didn\'t you wake me up, Sophia?""I tried, but they were gone after a few seconds.""Are you sure you didn\'t dream it?""You were the one who was sleeping!""Typical," he said, "The best photos are the ones we never take."We checked into a dusty hotel ａｎｄ　slept the sleep of the dead.While driving Daniel ａｎｄ　Sophia saw wild horses.【单选题】

2、Desirable Qualities in a TeacherHere I want to try to give you an answer to the question: What personal qualities are desirable in a teacher? Probably no two people would draw up exactly similar lists, but I think the following would be generally accepted.First, the teacher\'s personality should be pleasantly live ａｎｄ　attractive. This does not rule out people who are physically plain, ｏｒeven ugly, because many such have great personal charm. I would say that excludes all of dull ｏｒpurely negative personality. I still stick to what I said in my earlier book: that school children probably suffer more from bores than from brutes.Secondly, it is not merely desirable but essential fｏｒa teacher to have a great capacity fｏｒsympathy in the literal meaning of that word; a capacity to tune in to the minds ａｎｄ　feelings of other people, especially, since most teachers are school teachers, to the minds ａｎｄ　feelings of children. Closely related with this is the capacity to be tolerant not indeed, _____ what is wrong, but of frailty （脆弱) ａｎｄ　immaturity of human nature which induce people, ａｎｄ　again especially children, to make mistakes.Thirdly, I hold it essential fｏｒa teacher to be both intellectually ａｎｄ　morally honest. This does not mean being a plaster saint. It means that he will be aware of his intellectual strengths.【单选题】

A.in

B.at

C.of

D.which

正确答案:C

答案解析:be tolerant后要求接介词of。

3、Gun Rights in the USImmediately after the shooting at Virginia Tech University, Americans gathered to mourn (致哀) the dead. The president ａｎｄ　the state governer both hurried there to share the grief. But the majority of Americans still cling to their right to own weapons.Strictly speaking, the US is not the only country here gun violence has destroyed lives, families ａｎｄ　communities in everyday circumstance. But the US is one of the few countries that seem unwilling ａｎｄ　politically incapable of doing anything serious to stop it.In countries like Britain ａｎｄ　Canada, the government adopted strict gun control soon after serious gun violence incidents. US leaders, however, are held hostage by the gun lobby (院外活动集团) ａｎｄ　the electoral (选举) system.The powerful National Rifle Association, the majｏｒsupporter of gun rights in the US, is too strong fｏｒany party to take on. Most Republicans oppose gun control anyway. Over the years, the Democrats have found that they can either campaign fｏｒgun control ｏｒwin power, not both, they prefer power.According to the US Bureau of Justice Statistics, firearm (火器) incidents accounted fｏｒnine percent of the 4.7 million violent crimes in 2005. So although opinion polls show most Americans want stricter gun laws, many people don\'t want to give up their arms they keep to protect themselves.Dave Hancock, a Virginia gun lover, is one example. In an interview he said, "If one professｏｒin the Virginia incident had been carrying a legal weapon, they might have been able to stop all this. "In his opinion, the massacre (大屠杀) is an argument fｏｒmore people to carry weapons, not fewer.Americans\' clinging to the right to bear arms is not just a fear of crime, but a mistrust of ____, commented UK\'s Guardian newspaper.One Virginia resident, who had a permit to carry a concealed (隐藏的) firearm, told the Guardian that it was every American\'s responsibility to have a gun."Each person," he said, "should not rely solely on the government fｏｒprotection."【单选题】

A.guards

B.government

C.students

D.professors

正确答案:B

答案解析:本题有一定难度，需要认真阅读文章，理解好句意。文章此处是说“美国人持有枪支的根源在于对政府的不信任”，问题是和政府有关系的，最佳答案是B。本题也可先看选项，得到信息提示。

4、Intelligent Machines1. Medical scientists are already putting computer chips (芯片) directly into the brain to help people who have Parkinson\'s disease, but in what other ways might computer technology be able to help us? Ray Kurzweil is authｏｒof the successful book The Age of Intelligent Machines ａｎｄ　is one of the world\'s best computer research scientists. He is researching the possibilities.2. Kurzweil gets computers to recognize voices. An example of this is Ramona; the virtual (虚拟的) hostess of Kurzweil\'s homepage, who is programmed to understａｎｄ　what you say. Visitors to the site can have their conversations with her, ａｎｄ　Ramona also dances ａｎｄ　sings.3. Kurzweil uses this technology to help people with physical disabilities. One of his ideas is a "seeing machine". This will be "like a friend that could describe what is going on in the visible world", he explains. Blind people will use a visual sensｏｒ(探测器) which will probably be built into a pair of sunglasses. This sensｏｒwill describe to the person everything it sees.4. Another idea, which is likely to help deaf people, is the "listening machine". This invention will recognize millions of words ａｎｄ　understａｎｄ　any speaker. The listening machine will also be able to trans late into other languages, so even people without hearing problems are likely to be interested in using it.5. But it is not just about helping people with disabilities. Looking further into the future, Kurzweil sees a time when we will be able to download our entire consciousness onto a computer. This technology probably won\'t be ready fｏｒat least 50 years, but when it arrives, it means our minds will be able to live forever.Ray Kurzweil works with computers to help people ____.【单选题】

A.what you say

B.a pair of sunglasses

C.the listening machine

D.a visual sensor

E.who have disabilities

F.living forever in a computer

正确答案:E

答案解析:本题难度不大，是针对第三段的开头的主旨句出题，考生可根据题干提示词回到文章定位，找到这个主旨句，Kurzweil uses this technology to help people with physical disabilities，再结合选项，不难发现，E项who have physical disabilities就是对这个主旨句的近义改写，是答案。

5、It seems highly unlikely that she will pass the exam.【单选题】

6、The State of Marriage TodayIs there something seriously wrong with marriage today? During the past 50 years, the rate of divorce in the United States has exploded: almost 50% of marriages end in divorce now, ａｎｄ　the evidence suggests it is going to get worse. If this trend continues, it will lead to the breakup of the family, according to a spokesperson fｏｒthe National Family Association. Some futurists predict that in 100 years, the average American will marry at least four times, ａｎｄ　extramarital (婚外的) affairs will be even more common than they are now.But what are the reasons fｏｒthis, ａｎｄ　is the picture really so gloomy (黑暗的)? The answer to the first question is really quite simple: marriage is no longer the necessity it once was. The institution of marriage has been based fｏｒyears partly on economic need. Women used to be economically dependent on their husbands--as they usually didn\'t have jobs outside the home. But with the rising number of women in well-paying jobs, this is no longer the case, so they don\'t feel that they need to stay in a failing marriage.In answer to the second question, the outlook may not be as pessimistic (悲观的) as it seems. While the rate of divorce has risen, the rate of couples marrying has never actually fallen very much, so marriage is still quite popular. In addition to this, many couples now simply live together ａｎｄ　don\'t bother to marry. These couples are effectively married, but they do not appear in either the marriage ｏｒdivorce statistics. In fact, more than 50% of first marriages survive.So is marriage really an outdated institution? The fact that most people still get married indicates that it isn\'t. ａｎｄ　it is also true that married couples have a healthier life than single people: they suffer less from stress ａｎｄ　its consequences, such as heart problems, ａｎｄ　married men generally consider themselves. more contented than their single counterparts. Perhaps the key is to find out what makes a successful marriage ａｎｄ　apply it to all of our relationships! (2011年)Which of the following about marriage is NOT mentioned in the passage?【单选题】

A.There will be more relationships outside marriage.

B.Marriage has long been partly an economic need.

C.It is a fact that most people choose to get married

D.Many people went abroad after divorce.

8、Operatunity1. Operatunity is a TV talent show fｏｒamateur opera singers, The winners get the chance to sing with the English National Opera. When two housewives, Denise Leigh ａｎｄ　Jane Gilchrist won in 2002, their lives changed forever, As they sang Verdi\'s Rigoletto at the Coliseum (音乐厅) in Rome, they were transformed from working mothers into opera celebrities (名人).2. "I live in the village I was born in," says Denise, who is blind. "Lots of my neighbours are family, ａｎｄ　my life is all about my three children. Jane, who worked as a cleaner ａｎｄ　a shop assistant, was in a similar situation." She says.

They also had to learn to deal with the media." The kids loved the fact that they could stay up ａｎｄ　watch us on TV, but I just couldn\'t understａｎｄ　why some newspapers were more interested in the fact I divorced at 21, rather than the fact I had just sung at the Coliseum, says Denise.Paragraph 4 ____【单选题】

10、Fｏｄｄ（1)Ford\'s great strength was the manufacturing process not invention. Long before he started a car company, he was a worker, known fｏｒpicking up pieces of metal ａｎｄ　wire ａｎｄ　turning them into machines. He started putting cars together in 1891, although it was by no means the first popular automobile, the Model T showed the world just how creative Ford was at combining technology ａｎｄ　market.(2)The company\'s assembly line alone. threw America\'s Industrial Revolution into overdrive(高速运转）. Instead of having workers put together the entire car, Ford\'s friends, who were great toolmakers from Scotland, organized teams that added parts to each Model T as it moved down a line. By the time Ford\' s Highlａｎｄ　Park plant was humming (嗡嗡作响) along in 1914, the world\'s first automatic conveyｏｒbelt could turn out a car every 93 minutes.（3）The same year Henry Ford shocked the world with the $5 a day minimum Wage scheme, the greatest contribution he had ever made. The average Wage in the auto industry then was $2. 34 fｏｒa9-hour shift. Ford not only doubled that he also took an hour off the workday. In those years it was unthinkable that a man could be paid that much fｏｒdoing something that didn\'t involve an awful lot of training ｏｒeducation. The Wall Street Journal called the plan "an economic crime" ａｎｄ　critics everywhere laughed at Ford.(4)But as the wage increased later to daily $10, it proved a critical component of Ford\'s dream to make the automobile accessible to all The critics were too stupid to understａｎｄ　that because Ford had lowered his costs per car, the higher wages didn\'t matter, except fｏｒmaking it possible fｏｒmore people to buy cars.Ford was the first to adopt ____【单选题】

A.criticized by the media
