Sneaker is a kind of shoe worn by many people all over the world. Some say that the word “sneaker”
is another word for tennis shoe, 41 no one really knows where the word came from. 42 say it
came from the old English verb “sneak”, which 43 to move silently and quickly. The only thing
we are 44 is that when you put on a pair of sneakers, you 45 light-hearted, light-footed and ready to play.
Sneakers of some kind are used by 46 who play tennis, basketball, and other sports. New design
has been made 47 for people who run slowly. But perhaps sneakers are 48 used by children in
the United States. In fact American children of 49 ages would much rather play in sneakers than
anything else, except perhaps 50 at all.
New York City once held a poetry contest (詩歌比賽) for children. The subject was only “sneaker”. Thousands of children sent in their 51 and
praised the sneakers they love. One prize winner called 52 poem “The Sneaker and the World
Peace”. “When everyone is wearing sneakers,” she said, “it will be impossible to 53 .”
American school children can be seen every day 54 sneakers of all colours. They put them on in
the morning and take them off 55 . Sneakers are 56 washed. In fact the older and dirtier they
are, the 57 loveable they are. When their sneakers wear out (穿破), children hate to throw them off. How do you explain the closeness between 58 ? Perhaps
another young 59 in the New York Poetry Contest said it best. “A shoe is just a shoe,” he said.
“But a sneaker is a 60 .”

第三部分:閱讀理解(共20小題;每小題2分,滿分40分)
閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項,并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
A
Every year thousands of tourists visit Pompeii, Italy. They see the sights that Pompeii is famous
for — its stadium (運動場) and theatres, its shops and restaurants. The tourists do not, however, see Pompeii’s people. They do not see them because Pompeii has no people. No one has lived in Pompeii for
almost 2,000 years.
Once, Pompeii was a busy city of 22,000 people. It lay at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, a grass-covered volcano. Mount Vesuvius had not erupted (噴發) for centuries, so the people of Pompeii felt safe. But they were not.
In August of AD 79, Mount Vesuvius erupted. The entire top of the mountain exploded (爆炸), and a huge black cloud rose into the air. Soon stones and hot ash (灰燼) began to fall on Pompeii. When the eruption ended two days later, Pompeii was buried under 20
feet of stones and ashes. Almost all of its people were dead.
For centuries, Pompeii lay buried under stone and ash. Then, in the year 1861, an Italian scientist
named Ginseppe began to uncover Pompeii.
Slowly, carefully, Ginseppe and his men dug. The city
looked almost the same as it had looked in AD 79. There were streets and fountains (噴泉), houses and shops. There was a stadium with 20,000 seats. Perhaps the most important of all,
there were everyday objects, which tell us a great deal about the people who lived in Pompeii. Many
glasses and jars had some dark blue colour in the bottom, so we know that the people of Pompeii
liked wine. They liked bread, too, metal bread pans were in every bakery (面包店). In one bakery there were 81 round, flat loaves of bread — a type of bread that is still sold in Italy today. Tiny boxes filled with a dark, shiny powder tell (粉末) us that women liked to wear eye-makeup.
Ginseppe has died, but his work continues. One-fourth has not been uncovered yet. Scientists are still digging, still making discoveries that draw the
tourists to Pompeii.
61.Why do large numbers of people come to Pompeii each year?
A. To visit the volcano. B. To shop and eat there.
C. To watch sports and plays. D. To see how Pompeiians lived.
62.Why had so many Pompeiians remained by volcanic Mount Vesuvius?
A. The city nearby offered all kinds of fun.
B. The area produced the finest wine in Italy.
C. Few people expected the volcano to erupt again.
D. The mountain was beautiful and covered with grass.
63.Why did the city uncovered look almost the same as it had looked in AD 79?
A. Because Ginseppe and his men dug it slowly and carefully.
B. Because the city was buried alive and remained untouched.
C. Because scientists successfully rebuilt the city with everyday objects.
D. Because nobody had lived in the city ever since the volcano erupted.
64.What do we know about the Pompeiians who lived 2000 years ago?
A. They lived more or less the same as Italians now do.
B. They liked women wearing all kinds of makeup.
C. They enjoyed a lazy life with drinking and eating.
D. They went back to Pompeii after the eruption in AD 79.
B
When I was a boy, I belonged to the Boy Scouts (童子軍), so I used to go camping every summer, and once something happened which I have never been
able to explain.
We were camping in a place above a river. After arriving, we all rushed down to the river and had a
swim. Standing by the river, we noticed that it was surrounded by cliffs (懸崖). If someone wanted to reach the river at this point, he had to walk past our camp.
Several days later, the scoutmaster had to be away for a day. That afternoon, we had supper early.
We were sitting round the fire, eating and talking, when a man walked past and went down towards
the river. We all felt that this man looked very strange, but, because each of us was afraid of looking
very stupid, no one said anything.
We ate rather slowly, taking as long as possible. After finishing, we collected our plates together so
that we could take them to the river where we always washed them. But no one moved towards the
river — we stood looking at each other ashamed (感到不好意思的). Then all shouting at once, we began talking about the man who had walked past us. We agreed
how strange he looked and we wondered what he could be doing by the river. We knew that he
could only return by passing through our camp.
An hour passed. Then one of the boys suggested we should creep (悄悄移動) down by the river so that we could see what the man was doing. Moving very slowly and
keeping in the shadow (陰暗), we crept down towards the bank. One boy climbed a tree so that he could see everything
clearly. He called to us that there was no one there, so we ran down to the bank, looking everywhere
carefully. We could not understand where the man had gone.
When it got dark, we went back to our camp feeling bewildered. We told the scoutmaster what had
happened in the evening. Smiling, he doubted that we had seen the man, but finally suggested we go
and look again. We did, but there was no one there.
Many years have passed, but I still remember it as if it were yesterday. What did we see? I do
not know.
65.The writer in the text mainly tells us ________.
A. the story of his childhood B. a strange camping experience
C. about a stranger by the river D. about a good place for camping
66.Why did the boys eat their supper slowly?
A. They wanted to go to the river bank at a later time.
B. They were waiting for their scoutmaster.
C. They had a supper earlier than usual.
D. They were talking while eating.
67.The word “bewildered” in the text probably means ________.
A. ashamed B. nervous (緊張的)
C. unable to understand D. eager (渴望的) to know something
68.The writer still remembers the event because ________.
A. the boys acted foolishly
B. the camping place is beautiful
C. there has been no explanation for the event
D. he particularly enjoyed his camping that summer
C
I’m seventeen. I had worked as a box boy at a supermarket in Los Angeles. People came to the
counter (柜臺) and you put things in their bags for them. And carried things to their cars. It was hard work.
While working, you wear a plate with your name on it. I once met someone I knew years ago. I
remembered his name and said, “Mr Castle, how are you?” We talked about this and that. As he
left, he said, “It was nice talking to you, Brett.” I felt great, he remembered me. Then I looked
down at my name plate. Oh, no. He didn’t remember me at all, he just read the name plate. I wish I had put “Irving” down on my name
plate. If he’d have said, “Oh yes, Irving, how could I forget you?” I’d have been ready for him. There’s nothing personal here.
The manager and everyone else who were a step above the box boys often shouted orders. One of
these was: you couldn’t accept tips. Okay, I’m outside and I put the bags in the car. For a lot of people, the natural reaction (反應) is to take a quarter and give it to me. I’d say, “I’m sorry, I can’t.” They’d get angry. When you give someone a tip, you’re sort of being polite. You take a quarter and you put it in their hand and you expect them to say,
“Oh, thanks a lot.” When you say, “I’m sorry, I can’t.” they feel a little put down. They say, “No one will know.” And they put it in your pocket.
You say, “I really can’t.” It gets to a point where you almost have to hurt a person physically (身體上) to prevent him from tipping you. It was not in agreement with the store’s belief in being friendly. Accepting tips was a friendly thing and made the customer feel good. I just
couldn’t understand the strangeness of some people’s ideas. One lady actually put it in my pocket, got in the car, and drove away. I would have had to
throw the quarter at her or eaten it or something.
I had decided that one year was enough. Some people needed the job to stay alive and fed. I guess I
had the means and could afford to hate it and give it up.
69.What can be the best title for this text?
A. How Hard Life Is for Box Boys B. Getting along with Customers
C. Why I Gave up My Job D. The Art of Taking Tips
70.From the second paragraph, we can infer (推斷) that ________.
A. the writer didn’t like the impersonal part of his job
B. with a name plate, people can easily start talking
C. Mr Castle mistook Irving for Brett
D. Irving was the writer’s real name
71.The box boy refused to accept tips because ________.
A. customers only gave small tips
B. some customers had strange ideas about tipping
C. the store didn’t allow the box boys to take tips
D. he didn’t want to fight with the customers
72.The underlined phrase “put down” in the third paragraph probably means ________.
A. misunderstood B. defeated C. hateful D. hurt
D
James Cleveland Owens was the son of a farmer and the grandson of black slaves. His family
moved to Cleveland when he was 9. There, a school teacher asked the youth his name.
“J. C.,” he replied.
She thought he had said “Jesse”, and he had a new name.
Owens ran his first race at age 13. After high school, he went to Ohio State University. He had to
work part time so as to pay for his education. As a second-year student, in the Big Ten games in 1935, he set even more records than he would in the Olympic
Games a year later.
A week before the Big Ten meet, Owens accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. His back hurt so
much that he could not exercise all week, and he had to be helped in and out of the car that drove
him to the meet. He refused to listen to the suggestions that he give up and said he would try, event
by event. He did try, and the results are in the record book.
The stage was set for Owens’ victory (勝利) at the Olympic Games in Berlin the next year, and his success would come to be regarded as
not only athletic (體育的) but also political. Hitler did not congratulate any of the African-American winners.
“It was all right with me,” he said years later. “I didn’t go to Berlin to shake hands with him, anyway.”
Having returned from Berlin, he received no telephone calls from the president of his own country,
either. In fact, he was not honored by the United States until 1976, four years before his death.
Owens’ Olympic victories made little difference to him. He earned his living by looking after
a
school playground, and accepted money to race against cars, trucks, motorcycles, and dogs.
“Sure, it bothered me,” he said later. “But at least it was an honest living. I had to eat.”
In time, however, his gold medals changed his life. “They have kept me alive over the years,” he
once said. “Time has stood still for me. That golden moment dies hard.”
73.In the Big Ten meet, Owens _________.
A. hurt himself in the back B. succeeded in setting many records
C. tried every sports event but failed D. had to give up some events
74.We can infer from the text that Owens was treated unfairly in the US at that time because ________
_.
A. he was not of the right race (人種)
B. he was the son of a poor farmer
C. he didn’t shake hands with Hitler
D. he didn’t talk to the US president on the phone
75.When Owens says “They have kept me alive over the years,” he means that the medals _________.
A. have been changed for money to help him live on
B. have made him famous in the US
C. have encouraged him to overcome difficulties in life
D. have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs
76.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Jesse Owens, a Great American Athlete B. Golden Moment — a Life-time Struggle
C. Making a Living as a Sportsman D. How to Be a Successful Athlete
E
Fish have ears. Really. They’re quite small and have no opening to the outside world carrying sound through the body. For the
past
seven years, Simon Thorrold, a university professor, has been examining fish ears, small round
ear bones called otoliths.
As fish grow, so do their otoliths. Each day, their otoliths gain a ring of calcium carbonate (碳酸鈣). By looking through a microscope (顯微鏡) and counting (數) these rings, Thorrold can determine the exact age of a young fish. As a fish
gets older, its otoliths no longer get daily rings. Instead, they get yearly rings, which can also be
counted, giving information about the fish’s age, just like the growth rings of a tree.
Ring counting is nothing new to fish scientists. But Thorrold has turned to a new direction. They’re examining the chemical elements (元素) of each otolith ring.
The daily ring gives us the time, but chemistry tells us about the environment in which the fish
swam on any given day. These elements tell us about the chemistry of the water that the fish was
in. It also says something about water temperature, which determines how much of these elements
will gather within each otolith ring.
Thorrold can tell, for example, if a fish spent time in the open ocean before entering the less salty
water of coastal areas. He can basically tell where fish are spending their time at any given stage of
history.
In the case of the Atlantic croaker, a popular saltwater food fish, Thorrold and his assistant have
successfully followed the travelling of young fish from mid-ocean to the coast, a journey of many hundreds of miles.
This is important to managers in the fish industry, who know nearly nothing about the whereabouts
(行蹤) of the young fish for most food fish in the ocean. Eager to learn about his technology, fish
scientists are now lending Thorrold their ears.
77.What can we learn about fish ears from the text?
A. They are small soft rings. B. They are not seen from the outside.
C. They are openings only on food fish. D. They are not used to receive sound.
78.Why does the writer compare the fish to trees?
A. Trees gain a growth ring each day.
B. Trees also have otoliths.
C. Their growth rings are very small.
D. They both have growth rings.
79.Why is it important to study the chemistry of otolith rings?
A. The elements of the otoliths can tell the history of the sea.
B. Chemical contents (含量) of otoliths can tell how fast fish can swim.
C. We can know more about fish and their living environment.
D. Scientists can know exactly how old a fish is.
80.How would you understand “fish scientists are now lending their ears”?
A. They are very interested in Thorrold’s research findings.
B. They want to know where they can find fish.
C. They lend their fish for chemical studies.
D. They wonder if Thorrold can find growth rings from their ears.

Text 3

W: I’d have had a better time at the party if I’d known more western customs and their languages.
Text 4

W: No, I haven’t got used to his lecture yet. There are so many British words.
Text 5

M: Besides, he uses too much different English.
W: Yes, he is from the US.
Text 6

M: It’s ready. Do you want any milk?
W: Just a 1ittle, please. Or it will be too bitter.
M: What about some sugar? Two teaspoonfuls?
W: No, less than that. One teaspoonful is enough. Too much sugar isn’t good for our health.
M: That’s right.
Text 7
M: Hi, Mary! Is this seat free?

M: Yeah. There will be an English Corner tonight. Shall we go together?
W: What for?

It rises up nearly 100 meters to a golden point above the clock and a thirteen ton bell.
W: Did you hear the sound of Big Ben in London?
M: No, I am not so lucky. But the sound of the bell, which we can hear at the beginning of many
television and radio programs, has become well known throughout the nation.

W: Maybe you are just an average student with an average intellect, but you can become a better
scholar if you want to, here’s how:
Firstly, plan your time carefully. Make a list of things that you have to do, then make a schedule of
your time, deciding on a good, regular time for studying and relaxing.
Secondly, scan before you read. Look a passage over quickly but thoroughly before carefully reading
. Scanning may help you double your reading speed.
Thirdly, make good use of your time in class. Listen carefully to everything that is taught.
Last but not the least, develop a good attitude about tests. Tests do more than just provide grades;
they let you know what you need to study more, and they help make your new knowledge permanent.

One possible version:
Dear Mr and Mrs Johnson,
I’m writing to tell you that I had a safe journey back to Beijing. Thanks to your hospitality, I had a
wonderful time in Australia. It was my first time to go abroad and I was naturally a bit nervous when
I first arrived. When I saw you at the airport, however, I knew from your warm smile of welcome
that everything would be all right. With Jenny’s help, I visited so many places of interest in Australia, which leaves me quite a good memory. I
hope some day you will come to visit Beijing and I can return your kindness.
Best wishes,

“How can I learn English well?” This is a question many students ask. In my opinion the most effective way is to learn lessons by heart. If you can recite the text and write it out you’ve learned it fairly well. And if you can tell what the lesson says in your own words you’re a very successful learner indeed. Your English will be quite perfect.
This is a difficult task. However if you try to learn by heart only part of each lesson you’ll find it not half as hard as you might have thought. Learning this way you will make rapid progress. Of course writing is also necessary. It helps you a lot on our way to success in English.
Equally important is to feel the language. You should be able to laugh at jokes and be shocked at bad news. When using English try to forget your mother tongue. Instead of helping you your own language gets in your way. So never try to see English through translation.
55.In the writer’s opinion the most effective way in learning English is ____.
A.to practise speaking writing and feeling it
B.to forget your own native language
C.to translate everything into his own language
D.to memorize the English words and grammatical rules
56. “Instead of helping you your own language gets in your way.”This sentence means that memorizing your own language can ________.
A.help you to study English well B.stop you mastering English
C.make English easy to learn D.help you notice mistakes
57.Equally important is to feel the language. “to feel the language” here means________.
A.to get a knowledge of English by touching
B. to be able to read and write English
C.to translate English into your own by imagining
D.to be able to experience the rich sensation of the language
(C)
In America when people say “man’s best friend” they don’t mean another person. Instead they are talking about a lovely animal:A dog! These words show the friendship between people and animals.

If you don’t have a pet be kind to animals around you. For example if you see a street dog don’t kick it or throw things at it. Instead just leave it alone or better yet make friends with it. If others around you do bad things to an animal try to stop them. As people we must protect animals who can’t speak for themselves.

Finally, a cell phone
That’s… a phone
With rates as low as $3.75 per week!
“Well, I finally did it.I finally decided to enter the digital age and get a cell phone.My kids have been annoying me and the last straw was when my car broke down, and I was stuck by the highway for an hour before someone stopped to help.But when I went to the cell phone store, I almost changed my mind.The phones all have cameras, computers and a "global-positioning" something or other that’s supposed to spot me from space.Goodness, all I want to do is to be able to talk to my grandkids! The people at the store weren’t much help.They couldn’t understand why someone wouldn’t want a phone the size of a postage stamp.And the rate plans! They were confusing, and expensive ...and the contract (合同) lasted for two years! I’d almost given up until a friend told me about her new Jitterbug phone.Now, I have the convenience and safety of being about to stay in touch …with a phone I can actually use.”
Affordable plans that I can understand — and no contract to sign! Unlike other cell phones, Jitterbug has plans that make sense. Why should I pay for minutes I’m never going to use. And if I do talk more than I plan, I won’t find myself with no minutes like my friend who has a prepaid phone. Best of all, there is no contract to sign — so I’m not locked in for years at a time. The US-based customer service is second to none. And the phone gets service anywhere in the country.

Are you an early riser or a night owl? Researchers from Aachen University in Germany believe that about 10 percent of people can be classified as “morning people”, who feel more active and function best in the morning.Around 20 percent are night owls—people who naturally tend to stay up late and are more tired during the day.And the rest of us fall somewhere in between, according to New Scientist.
Previous studies have suggested that early risers are more likely to be happy and healthy while night owls experience worse sleep as well as more depression and anxiety during the day.
For a long time, scientists have been trying to find out what causes the differences between the two.A new study suggests that it isn’t just people’s habits—early risers and night owls actually have different brain structures.
Led by Jessica Rosenberg at Aachen University, researchers scanned the brains of 16 early risers, 23 night owls and 20 people with intermediate sleeping hours.They found that the brains of night owls had less “white matter”—which speeds up the transmission(傳輸) of nerve signals — in brain areas associated with depression.
As you know, after people fly in an airplane from one time zone to another, they often suffer from a confused and tired feeling called “jet lag” because their body clocks are out of sync(不同步的) with the new time zone.It usually takes about a week for their bodies to adjust to the new time.But night owls always have difficulty syncing their bodies to the right time due to their brain structure.“It’s like they suffer from permanent jet lag,” said Rosenberg.
The good news is that it is possible for night owls to turn themselves into morning people.According to the researchers, night owls should try to spend as much time in the sunlight as possible and reduce their exposure to artificial light at night to force their body clocks to shift to a more normal rhythm.
1.What does the article mainly discuss?
A.How to turn early risers into night owls.
B.How our habits influence our sleep patterns.
C.What causes the differences between early risers and night owls.
D.Why early risers are happier and healthier than night owls.
2.We can learn from the article that night owls ________.
A.make up almost a third of the human population
B.have more white matter in their brains than other people
C.are more used to artificial night than sunlight
D.have body clocks that are not in agreement with the actual time
3.Jessica Rosenberg’s research suggests that ________.
A.previous studies about night owls are wrong
B.night owls are affected by jet lag more strongly than others
C.white matter helps our brains work more efficiently
D.brain structure might determine people’s chances of suffering from depression

(CBS/AP)Lawyers for the stepfather of an 11-year-old girl tried to convince Massachusetts’ highest court on Tuesday that he should have a say on whether his stepdaughter is removed from life support. If the girl dies, Jason Strickland could face a murder charge for illegally taking part in the beating that left her comatose(昏迷).
Jason Strickland is asking the court to overturn a juvenile(少年) court judge’s decision allowing the state to remove Haleigh Poutre from her ventilator (呼吸機) and feeding tube.
Haleigh Poutre was hospitalized in September after her stepfather and adoptive mother kicked her and beat her nearly to death with a baseball bat.
Within two weeks of being charged, the adoptive mother, who was also Haleigh’s aunt, was found dead.
Strickland is free on bail(保釋) while awaiting trial.
Sharyn Alfonsi from CBS reports that the girl’s biological mother, Allison Avrett, gave up her parental right years ago and now she has no say in what happens to Halleigh—but she wants life support to be relieved.
“I want her to rest,” Avrett told Alfonsi.“Being kept alive like that, it’s not a life.”
The state Department of Social Services wants to remove her from life support, according to opinions from her doctors that the girl is in a permanent vegetative(植物人狀態的) state.And Strickland could face a murder charge if she dies.
Both of Haleigh’s doctors agree that she should be removed from the ventilator, but they can’t decide whether her feeding tube should be disconnected.They have said that with her feeding tube alone, Haleigh could live as long as two months.
Haleigh was adopted by her aunt about five years ago her biological mother moved to Virginia with a new boyfriend.Jason Strickland never formally adopted the girl, but is arguing that as the stepfather, he should be a de facto parent and allowed to have a say in whether she lives or dies.

3.Why did Haleigh’s stepfather demand that her life support not be removed?
