You should read the materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.Task 1Telephone, television, radio, and telegraph all help people communicate with each other. Because of these devices, ideas and news of events spread quickly all over the world. For example, within seconds, people can know the results of an election in another country. An international football match comes into the homes of everyone with a television set. News of a disaster such as an earthquake or flood can bring help from distant countries. Within hours, help is on the way. Because of modern technology like the satellites that travel around the world, information travel fast.How has this speed of communication changed the world? To many people, the world has become smaller. Of course this does not mean that the world is actually physically smaller. It means that the world seems smaller. Two hundred years ago, communication between the continents took a long time. All news was carried on ships that took weeks or even months to cross the oceans. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, it took six weeks for news from Europe to reach Americas. This time difference influenced peoples actions. For example, one battle, in the War of 1812 between England and the United Stats could have been avoided. A peace agreement had already been signed. Peace was made in England, but the news of peace took six weeks to reach America. During these six weeks, the large and serious Battle of New Orleans was fought. Many people lost their lives after a peace treaty had been signed. They would not have died if news had come in time. In the past, communication took much more time than it does now.36. News spreads fast because of _.A. a peace agreementB. new technology C. the changes of the worldD. modern transportation37. According to this passage, _ is very important to people in a disaster area.A. latest newsB. new ideasC. fast communicationD. modern technology38. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The world is changing in size.B. The world now seems smaller because of faster communication.C. The world is actually smaller today.D. The distance between England and America has changed since the War of 1812.39. Two hundred years ago, news between the continents was carried _.A. by airB. by seaC. by landD. by telephone and telegraph40. The New Orleans Battle could have been avoided if the peace agreement had been signed _.A. in America B. in EnglandC. by both sides D. in timeTask 2When prices are low people will buy more, and when prices are high they will buy less. Every shopkeeper knows this. But at the same time, producers want higher prices for their goods when they make more goods. How can we find the best price for the goods? The Law of Supply and Demand is the economists answer to this question.According to this law, changes in the prices of goods cause changes in supply and demand. An increase in the price of the goods causes an increase in supply the number of goods the producers make. Producers will make more goods when they can get higher prices for the goods. The producer makes more shoes as the price of shoes goes up. At the same time, an increase in the price of the goods causes a decrease in demand the number of goods the consumers buy. This is because people buy less when the price is high. People buy fewer shoes as the price of shoes goes up. Conversely, a decrease in the price causes an increase in demand (people buy more shoes) and a decrease in supply (producers make fewer shoes).Business firms look at both supply and demand when they make decisions about prices and production. They look for the equilibrium point where supply equals demand. At this point, the number of shoes produced is 3000 and the price of the shoes is $ 30. $ 30 is the equilibrium price; at this price the consumers will buy all of the 3000 shoes which the producers make. If the producers increase the price of the shoes, or if they produce more than 3000 shoes, the consumers will not buy all of the shoes. The producers will have a surplus (过剩 ) more supply than demand so they must decrease the price in order to sell all of the shoes. On the other hand, if they make fewer than 3000 shoes, there will be a shoes shortage more demand than supply and the price will go up.According to the Law of Supply and Demand, the equilibrium price is the best price for the goods. The consumers and the producers will agree on this price because it is the only price that helps them both equally.41. Why does an increase in price cause an increase in supply?A. Consumers buy more goods when prices are high.B. Producers want to sell all of their goods.C. Producers make more goods when prices are high.D. Consumers will not buy all of the goods.42. Why does a decrease in prices cause an increase in demand?A. Producers make fewer goods when prices are low.B. Consumers buy fewer goods when prices are low.C. Consumers buy more goods when prices are low.D. Producers make more goods when prices are high.43. What do business firms look at when they make decisions about prices and production?A. The equilibrium point.B. The demand curve.C. The supply curve. D. All of the above.44. Why will consumers and producers agree on the equilibrium price?A. It is the only price for the goods.B. It will help them both equally.C. All of the goods will be sold.D. It is the lowest price.45. When will producers have a surplus of goods?A. When supply equals demand.B. When they sell all of their goods.C. When there is more demand than supply.D. When there is more supply than demand.Task 3Money is used for buying or selling goods, for measuring value and for storing wealth. Almost every society now has a money economy based on coins and bills of one kind or another. However, this has not always been true. In primitive societies a system of barter was used. Barter was a system of direct exchange of goods. Somebody could exchange a sheep, for example, for anything in the market place that he or she considered to be of equal value. Barter, however, was a very unsatisfactory system because peoples precise needs were seldom met. People needed a more practical system of exchange, and various money systems developed based on goods that the members of society recognized as having value. Cattle, grain, teeth, shells, feathers, salt, elephant tusks, and tobacco had all been used. Precious metals gradually took over because, when made into coins, they were portable, durable, recognizable, and divisible into larger and smaller units of value.A coin is a piece of metal, usually disc-shaped, which bears words, designs or numbers showing its value. Until the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, coins were given monetary worth based on the exact amount of metal contained in them, but most modern coins are based on face value the value that the governments choose to give them, which doesnt show the actual metal content. Coins have been made of gold, silver, copper, aluminum (铝) , nickel (镍) , lead, zinc (锌) , plastic and in China even from tea leaves. Most governments now issue paper money in the form of bills, which are really promise to pay. Paper money is obviously easier to handle and much more convenient in the modern world. Checks and credit cards are being used increasingly, and it is possible to imagine a world where money in the form of coins and paper currency will no longer be used. Even today, in the United States, many places, especially filling stations will not accept cash at night for security reasons.46. Barter here means _.A. exchanging goods for goods B. exchanging money for goods C. exchanging goods for money D. exchanging sheep for anything in the market 47. Why were precious metals gradually used for making coins? A. Because they were durable and portable. B. Because they were recognizable.C. Because they were divisible.D. All of the above.48. Coins were given value according to the exact amount of metals contained in them _.A. between the eighteenth and nineteenth centuriesB. after the eighteenth and nineteenth centuriesC. during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuriesD. before the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries49. Promises to pay means _.A. opportunities to pay B. necessities to pay C. obligations to pay D. possibilities to pay 50. A world without any money in the form of coins and paper is _. A. suitable B. possible C. avoidable D. necessary Reading Comprehension ( 2 ) (5points, 1 points each) Task 4 Directions: In this task, there is a passage with 5 questions (51 through 55). Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions in the fewest possible words. The answer should be written after corresponding numbers on the Answer Sheet. Sam and Joe were astronauts.

They are the last people Id trust, thought the boss. But all the other astronauts have refused to go. Once they were in space, Joe had to go outside to make some repairs. When the repairs were done, he tried to get back inside the spaceship. But the door was locked. He knocked but there was no answer. He knocked again, louder this time, and again, no answer came. Then he hit the door as he could and finally a voice said, Who s there? Its me. Who else could it be? shouted Joe. Sam let him in all right but you can imagine that Joe never asked to go on a trip with Sam again.51. Why were most of the astronauts unwilling to go on the trip? They thought they _.52.

D. 本题考察短语旳辨析。 go out意思是 “灭掉，熄灭”，go off 意思是 “离开，去世，消失”，go through 意思是 “经历，经受，仔细检查”，go over 意思是 “（(对.进行)仔细检查”。本题题干意思为“没有了空气，蜡烛就会熄灭。”18. B. 本题考察词义旳辨析。arouse是及物动词，意思是 “唤醒，唤起， 鼓励， 引起”，例如：The odd sight aroused our curiosity. 奇怪旳景象激起我们旳好奇。rise是不及物动词， 意思是 “上升， 升起”， arise不及物动词， 意思是 “出现， 发生， 起因于”， raise 及物动词， 意思是 “提高， 升起”。本句含义为：“一种重要旳问题就是怎样激发学生学习英语旳爱好。”，故选B。19.

A. 本题考察主谓一致。当主语背面跟有as well as 引起旳短语时，谓语动词与前面旳主语一致。例如： He as well as I wants to go boating. 出现这种状况是由于as well as后旳成分是插入语，不影响谓语动词旳数旳变化，类似旳词尚有with，together with 等。21. D. 本题考察形近词或短语。sometime意思是 “某个时间：在某个不确定或未阐明旳时间”， 例如：Ill meet you sometime this afternoon. （我今天下午某个时候见你。）some time是指一段时间， sometimes 意思是 “有时，偶尔”， some times意思是 “多次”。 22.

A. 本题考察短语旳辨析。in advance 意思是 “预先， 提前”， in turn意思是 “轮番”， in return 意思是 “作为报答”。本题题干意为“这条旅游线路人诸多，你应当提前定票。”27.

A. 本题考察虚拟语气。动词advise意为 “提议”，在引导旳宾语从句中，谓语动词用“(should) 动词原形”构成虚拟语气。类似旳词尚有“insist, recommend, suggest”等。35. C. 本题考察it旳使用方法。It 在句中作形式宾语，代指背面旳不定式构造 “to make such a fuss about that sort of thing.”。其他选项无法作为形式宾语出现。Part III Reading ComprehensionTask 1本文重要简介通讯对人类社会旳影响，文章简
