Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety. The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals. The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration card to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge. The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate. From then on, they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly。 With so many loopholes in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”. But the strange thing is, all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms. And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do, living in such a society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”. In a society of such high moral practice, what need is there for people to be on guard against others?21.While taking a taxi in Finland, _.A. a passenger can go anywhere without having to pay the driverB. a passenger pays two US dollars for a taxi rideC. a passenger can never be refused by the taxi driver wherever he wants to goD. a passenger needs to provide good faith demonstration before leaving without paying22.We know from the passage that big hotels in Finland _.A. are mostly poorly managed B. provide meals for any dinersC. provide free wine and charge for food D. provide meal for only those who live in the hotels23.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. The workers in Finland are paid by the hour.B. The workers are always honest with their working hours.C. The workers and their bosses will make an agreement in advance about the pay.D. The bosses in Finland are too busy to check the working hours of their employees.24.The word “those” in the last but one paragraph probably refers to _.A. people who are dishonest B. people who often have meals in big hotelsC. people who often take taxis D. people who are worthy of trust B Now scientists believe that global warming affects hibernating animals, causing them to wake up earlier. While this may seem a little concern, it is in fact a significant environmental problem. The shortened hibernation period could actually lead to significant declines in the populations of several species. Some of the first concrete evidence of the phenomenon came from Colorado, where researchers at the Rocky Mountain Biological lab have been observing marmot hibernation behavior since the 1970s. In the early days of their studies, marmots generally hibernated several weeks into the month of May. Nowadays, however, temperatures in the area have risen by 2.5 degrees Fahrenheit, and the marmots are waking up about a month earlier. At least the marmots are still hibernating. Several other animals have not been hibernating at all recently. Brown bears in the Spanish Cantabrian Mountains did not hibernate last year. In parts of the United States, chipmunks also skipped the hibernation period. The bears seem to have survived without losing many individuals. The chipmunks, however, were not so lucky. Many of the animals died of starvation during the winter. The problem with animals waking up early, or skipping hibernation altogether, lies with the creatures metabolism（新陈代谢）. When an animal hibernates, their metabolism drops significantly. The animals heart rate slows, and they require very little energy to live. When the animals awake from their winter slumber, their metabolism returns to normal. But while their metabolism may be as active as it was before hibernation, food sources arent as available as they were before. A marmot may wake up when temperatures get warmer, thinking its spring, but plants will not have gotten the amount of sun they need to signal their spring period of growth. So until the plants grow, the marmots have no reliable food source. Many scientists believe the problem will continue to get worse. In addition to changes in hibernation patterns, some believe that other animals will also begin to change their migration patterns or begin to give birth earlier. For many biologists, thats a scary prospect. Terry Root, an animal expert at Stanford University, said: “I do think what we will be facing is the extinction of many species.25.What is the viewpoint of the writer?A. Global warming will continue to get worse as time goes on.B. Global warming will lead to shortened hibernation of some animals.C. Shortened hibernation will result in declines in the population of animals.D. Some animals will skip hibernation altogether.26.The writer sets the example of the marmot so as to _.A. explain that global warming influences animals hibernation B. indicate that the weather gets warmer and warmer nowC. show that the weather in the United States is quite differentD. say some animals do not hibernate now due to warm weather27.Why cant marmots find enough food when they wake up?A. Because there are too many marmots in the wild now.B. Because plants havent received enough sunlight for spring growth.C. Because winter days end much earlier than before.D. Because more and more animal species skip hibernation now.28.Terry Root holds a(n) _ attitude towards the future of animals.A. optimistic B. Doubtful C. pessimistic D. sensitive C A popular saying goes, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” However, thats not really true. Words have the power to build us up or tear us down. It doesnt matter if the words come from someone else or ourselves the positive and negative effects are just as lasting. We all talk to ourselves sometimes. Were usually too embarrassed to admit it, though. In fact, we really shouldnt be because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit. This “self-talk” helps us motivate ourselves, remember things, solve problems, and calm ourselves down. Be aware, though, that as much as 77% of self-talk tends to be negative. So in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves. We should also be quick to give ourselves a pat on the back. The next time you finish a project, do well in a test, or finally clean your room, join me in saying “Good job!” Often, words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the effect they will have. But we should be aware that our words cause certain responses in others. For example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm, friendly language during the exchange. And the clerk will probably respond in a similar manner. Or harsh and critical language will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive. Words possess power because of their lasting effects. Many of us regret something we once said. And we remember unkind words said to us! Before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: Is it true? Is it loving? Is it needed? If what we want to say doesnt pass this test, then its better left unsaid. Words possess power: both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-esteem and motivate others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal? The choice is ours.29.There is no need for us to feel embarrassed when we talk to ourselves because _.A. we can benefit from talking to ourselves B. talking to ourselves always gives us courageC. almost everybody has the habit of talking to themselves D. it does no harm to have “self-talk” when we are alone30.The underlined part in the third paragraph means that we should also timely _.A. remind ourselves B. praise ourselves C. make ourselves relaxed D. give ourselves amusement31.The author would probably hold the view that _.A. encouraging words are sure to lead to kind offersB. negative words may motivate us to make more progressC. people tend to remember friendly wordsD. it is better to think twice before talking to others D America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending sometimes deeply into both families. Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality easily. Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they dont show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably. For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!32.The writer of this passage must be _.A. an American B. a Chinese C. a professor D. a student33.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.B. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.C. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.D. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.34.The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean _.A. strict with time B. serious with time C. careful with time D. willing to spend time35.A suitable title for this passage would probably be “_”.A. Friendships between Chinese B. Friendships between AmericansC. Americans hospitality D. Americans and Chineses views of friendships第2节 （共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）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。选项中有多余选项。 It is necessary but difficult for English beginners to memorize new words, and long lists of words seem to make the task impossible. They are puzzled why they try to memorize words with great efforts but forget them easily. Thats why there are often inquiries about how to memorize new words. 36 Here are some tips to help. 37 We too often separate the process of new words memorization from pronunciation. In factthese two can be combined and each will enhance the other. Saying the word to ourselves helps activate hearing memory, which helps the memory. 38 The more familiar we are with the word, the greater chance we will have to keep it for the rest of our life. Never memorize single English words. 39 Relate the word to terms we already know, either as synonym or antonym. For example, the word gargantuan is similar in meaning to words gigantic,”huge and large. Make a order of words: small, medium, large, gigantic, and gargantuan.Create a mental image of the word that involves strong emotions. Think, The gargantuan whale is going to swallow me whole. Learning English words requires action. Complaining how difficult it is to memorize new words will be of little help. 40 Have a try with ten words a day and you will see what a difference you will make in our English learning.A. So take action right now.B. Speak the word while memorizing it.C. Memorizing new words is very important.D. Actually, some have given up learning new words.E. In fact, learning new words neednt be that difficult.F. Make as many associations and connections as possible.G. The sound of word helps us recall the spelling and familiarizes us with the word.第三节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从3150各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将选项标号涂黑。 Youve probably seen blind people walking with their trusted and gentle four-legged guides-or “seeing-eye” dogs. The 41 trained dogs serve as eyes for people who cant see, making it 42 for them to lead independent lives. 43 what you probably didnt know is that about 80 years ago, a doctor and his patient discovered this entirely 44 ! Many people were killed or injured during World War. Near the end of that war, Dr. Gerhard Stalling and his 45 walked with a patienta German soldier who had been 46 -around hospital grounds in Germany. While they were walking, the doctor was 47 away. The dog and the soldier stayed outside. A few moments later, when the doctor returned, the dog and the soldier were 48 ! Searching the paths worriedly, Dr. Stalling made an astonishing 49 . His pet had led the soldier 50 around the hospital grounds. And together the two 51 peacefully back toward the doctor. 52 by what his dog could do, Dr Stalling set up the first 53 in the world to train dogs as guides. Dorothy Eustis, an American woman 54 as a dog trainer for the International Red Cross in Switzerland, was 55 to study the way Stalling trained dogs and spent several months in his school. She came away so impressed that she wrote a(an) 56 about it for the Saturday Evening Post in America. A blind American man, Morris Frank, 57 the article and he wrote to Dorothy Eustis and asked that she 58 a dog for him. Dorothy Eustis took up the 59 , and trained a dog, Buddy.
