2、J. K. RowlingLike that of her own character, Harry Potter, J. K. Rowling\'s life has the luster of a fairy tale. Divorced, living on public assistance in a tiny Edinburgh flat with her infant daughter, Rowling wrote Harry Potter ａｎｄ　the Sorcerer\'s Stone at a table in a cafe during her daughter\'s naps ａｎｄ　it was Harry Potter that rescued her.Rowling remembers that she always wanted to write ａｎｄ　that the first story she actually wrote down, when she was five ｏｒsix, was a story about a rabbit called Rabbit. Many of her favorite memories center around enjoying the fantastic adventure stories.On a particularly long train ride from Manchester to London in the summer of 1990, the idea came to her of a boy who is a wizard ａｎｄ　doesn\'t know it. He attends a school fｏｒwizardry -she could see him very plainly in her mind. _____ four hours later, many of the characters ａｎｄ　the early stages of the plot were fully formed in her head. The story took further shape as she continued working on it in pubs ａｎｄ　cafes over her lunch hours.Rowling was working as a French teacher when she heard that her book about the boy wizard had been accepted fｏｒpublication. Harry Potter ａｎｄ　the Philosopher\'s Stone was published in June1997 ａｎｄ　achieved almost instant success. With the publication of the American edition, retitled Harry Potter ａｎｄ　the Sorcerer\'s Stone, in 1998, Rowling\'s books continued to make publishing history. Harry Potter climbed to the top of all the bestseller lists fｏｒchildren\'s ａｎｄ　adult books. In Britain a separate edition of the first book appeared with a more "adult" dust jacket so that grown-ups reading it on trains ａｎｄ　subways would not have to hide their copy behind a newspaper.J. K. Rowling lives in Edinburgh, Scotland, with her daughter Jessica ａｎｄ　continues to work on writing the seven-book story of Harry Potter. 【单选题】

4、Geology ａｎｄ　Heap(1)The importance of particular metals in the human diet has been realized within the past few decades, ａｎｄ　the idea that geology might be related to health has been recognized fｏｒa number of elements such as iodine, zinc ａｎｄ　selenium. Fｏｒexample, soils with low iodine contents produce crops, ａｎｄ　animals deficient in iodine. A lack of iodine in the human diet leads to some serious diseases.(2)The ultimate source of metals within the human body is rocks, which weather into soil, gaining ｏｒlosing some of their chemical constituents. The crops we eat selectively remove from the soil the elements that they require fｏｒgrowth. The water we drink contains trace elements leached from rock ａｎｄ　soil. Thus the geology ａｎｄ　geochemistry of the environment have effects on the chemistry ａｎｄ　health of plants, animals ａｎｄ　people.(3)So far there is no data to suggest that people living on metal-rich soils experience a potential health hazard. The levels of metals within naturally contaminated soils are generally not high enough to cause serious health problems. Living on metal-rich soils does not represent a health risk unless large quantities of soil are digested ｏｒmetal-rich dust is inhaled. However, small children are particularly exposed to metal-rich topsoil in playgrounds ａｎｄ　gardens. They are also the most likely ones to eat potentially dangerous metal-rich soil.(4)Heavy metals are persistent: they do not break down to other chemicals in the environment. Industrially polluted sites usually undergo intensive clean-up ａｎｄ　rehabilitation because heavy metals are a health concern once they enter the food chain. Some trace metals are alleged to cause cancer ａｎｄ　are also known to cause poisoning(5)In contrast, naturally contaminated soils have not been subject too risk assessment studies ａｎｄ　rehabilitation measures, despite the fact that they frequently possess metal concentrations well above those of such polluted by humans ａｎｄ　above environmental quality criteria.(6)There is a vital need to understａｎｄ　the potential risks ａｎｄ　long-term health effects of living on naturally contaminated soils. Future environmental investigations of naturally polluted soils should concentrate on the potential pathways of metals into the food chain ａｎｄ　human body. Geologists should be part of such studies as they can provide the essential background information on rock ａｎｄ　soil chemistry as well as the chemical forms of heavy metal pollution.Geologists are indispensable in the research project on geology ａｎｄ　health due to their knowledge on ____ .【单选题】

A.industrially polluted soils

B.rock ａｎｄ　soil chemistry

C.naturally polluted soils

D.the pathways of metals into the food chain

E.the element of iodine

F.the persistence of heavy metals

正确答案:B

答案解析:全文都在论述重金属的摄入可能会对人体健康产生有害影响，最后一段说到地质学家在解决调查这个问题能起的作用。这个句子是：Geologists should be part of such studies as they can provide the essential background information on rock ａｎｄ　sail chemistry as well as the chemical forms of heavy metal pollution.

5、Mary felt lonely after her husbａｎｄ　died in a car accident.【单选题】

The annual University Festival is the grandest carnival (狂欢节) of Japanese universities. In the festival, students promote their clubs ａｎｄ　organize various activities. Our university\'s festival attracted about 150,000 people last year. I really like this festival.When we promote our clubs, we cook "tonnjiru", a kind of pork soup, ａｎｄ　sell it to other students at the fair.We also go to different places to interview celebrities (名人) who attend our festival as guests. It is a wonderful experience to talk to those stars face to face.Japanese students like to hold parties. We have two kinds of parties. One is the Mochivori party. If you want to attend this party you have to cook something ａｎｄ　take it to the party. The organizer buys drinks ａｎｄ　snacks.The other kind of party is the Nomikai, which mainly involves alcohol.

10、Why Is the Native Language Learnt So Well?How does it happen that children learn their mother tongue so well? When we compare them with adults learning a foreign language, we often find this interesting fact. A little child without knowledge ｏｒexperience often succeeds in a complete mastery of the language. A grown-up person with fully developed mental powers, in most case, may end up with a faulty ａｎｄ　inexact command. What accounts fｏｒthis difference?Despite other explanations, the real answer in my opinion lies partly in the child himself, partly in the behaviｏｒof the people around him. In the first place, the time of learning the mother tongue is the most favorable of all, namely, the first years of life. A child hears it spoken from morning till night and, what is more important, always in its genuine form, with the right pronunciation, right intonation, ａｎｄ　right use of words ａｎｄ　right structure. He drinks in all the words ａｎｄ　expressions, which come to him in a flash, ever-bubbling spring. There is no resistance: there is perfect assimilation.Then the child has, as it were, private lessons all the year round, while an adult language-student has each week a limited number of hours, which he generally shares with others. The child has another advantage: he hears the language in all possible situations, always accompanied by the right kind of gestures ａｎｄ　facial expressions. Here there is nothing unnatural, such as is often found in language lessons in schools, when one talks about ice ａｎｄ　snow in June ｏｒscorching heat in January. ａｎｄ　what a child hears is generally what immediately interests him. Again ａｎｄ　again, when his attempts at speech are successful, his desires are understood ａｎｄ　fulfilled.Finally, though a child\'s "teachers" may not have been trained in language teaching, their relations with him are always close ａｎｄ　personal. They take great pains to make their lessons easy.Plenty of practice in listening during the first years of life partly ensures children’s success of learning their mother tongue.【单选题】

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Not mentioned

正确答案:A

答案解析:题干大意：早年大量的听力练习是儿童成功学习母语的一个原因。利用答案线索词the first years of life，我们可以很快在第二段第二句中发现相关句。该句句意：首先，一生的头几年是学习母语的最佳时间。所以该问题句的说法“正确”。
