The Fair is a comprehensive(综合) one with the longest history, the highest level, the largest scale, the most complete exhibit variety, the broadest distribution of overseas buyers and the greatest business turnover (成交量) in China.Canton Fair attracts more than 24,000 Chinas best foreign trade companies with good credibility and sound financial capabilities, and 500 overseas companies to participate in the Fair.Canton Fair is a platform for import and export mainly, with various and flexible patterns of trade.

To report the trade achievements.B. To present overseas investment.C. To introduce the Canton Fair.D. To teach businessmen trade skills.BOne of the special features of English people is self-discipline (自律). Generally, English people are polite and always want to please others. On the other hand, they dont like to show their emotions, even in dangerous situations. Imagine the scene! Some English people are caught in a violent storm in the forest. Anybody else would be anxious to run away. The English would just try to hide their emotions. Not a sign of fear would be seen on their faces.We often hear of the English reserve(矜持). On a long railway journey, with four Englishmen sitting together, often there wont be a single word spoken during the whole journey. The English think it is a bad manner to ask personal questions. That wouldnt be the case in America. In a short ride in New York, a taxi driver will tell you about himself, his wife and his family, and probably the towns of England he has visited, too.The English value privacy (隐私) very much. An Englishmans house usually has a small garden with a fence all around to separate it from the neighbors. An Englishmans house is his castle.Finally, we have to refer to the most special feature of the Scottish (苏格兰的) people the Scottish dress. Scotland is probably best known to the world for its traditional costume the kilt. This short, skirt-like piece of clothing is worn by men.The kilt is made of a special type of colorful cloth called tartan, which is very special in Scotland.24When the English are in a dangerous situation they usually _.A. laugh at other people B. behave very bravelyC. hide their emotions D. run away immediately25In the second paragraph the author mentions a taxi driver in New York to _.A. explain what a personal question isB. show the bad manners of AmericansC. show that English people are not very politeD. show the reserve of the English26What do we know about the kilt in the last paragraph?A. Its long and just like a skirt.B. Its worn by both men and women.C. Its made of a special type of cloth in Scotland.D. Its a traditional costume all over Great Britain.27What can we learn about the English from the passage?A. They are not very confident.B.A house with a fence all around makes them feel safe.C.They usually dont respect others privacy.D. They prefer a house with a garden to a flat.CReading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website BookCrossing.com turns the page on the traditional idea of a book groupMembers go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. Book Crossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson, the managing director of Book Crossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. Book Crossing combines both.”Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to the Book Crossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce Pederson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.28Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?A. To explain what they are. B. To introduce BookCrossing.C. To stress the importance of reading. D. To encourage readers to share their ideas.29What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. The book. B. An adventure. C.A public place. D. The identification number.30What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?A. Meet other readers to discuss it. B. Keep it safe in his bookcase. C. Pass it on to another reader. D. Mail it back to its owner.31 What is the best title for the text?A. Online Reading: A Virtual Tour B. Electronic Books: A new Trend C. A Book Group Brings Tradition Back D. A Website Links People through BooksDCan dogs and cats live in perfect harmony in the same home? People who are thinking about adopting a dog as a friend for their cat are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found a new recipe for success. According to the study, if the cat is adopted before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along smoothly. Two-thirds of the homes interviewed reported a positive relationship between their cat and dog. However, it wasnt all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression and fighting were observed in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body signals are just opposite. For example, when a cat turns its head away it signals aggression, while a dog doing the same signals submission. In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers observed a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each others language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk Dog, and dogs can learn how to talk Cat. Whats interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to develop their intelligence. They can learn to read each others body signals, suggesting that the two may have more in common than was previously suspected. Once familiar with each others presence and body language, cats and dogs can play together, greet each other nose to nose, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa. They can easily share the same water bowl and in some cases groom (梳理) each other. The significance of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond petsto people who dont get along, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even world superpowers. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.32. Some cats and dogs may fight when _. A. they misunderstood each others signalsB. they look away from each other C. they are cold to each other D. they are introduced at an early age33. What is found surprising about cats and dogs? A. They eat and sleep each other. B. They learn to speak each others language. C. They observe each others behaviors. D. They know something from each others voices.34. It is suggested in Paragraph 4 that cats and dogs _.A. have common interestsB. have a common body languageC. are less different than was thoughtD. are less intelligent than was expected35. What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs? A. We should live in peace with animals. B. We should know more about animals. C. We should learn to live in harmony. D. We should learn more body languages.第二节 (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。选项中有两项为多余选项Easy Ways to Keep Your Brain SharpEveryone is forgetful, but as we age, we start to feel like our brains are slowing down a bit and that can be a very annoying thing. -36 _Read on for some techniques worth trying.1. 37People who regularly made plans and looked forward to upcoming events had a 50 percent reduced chance of Alzheimers disease, according to a recent study. 38 Something as simple as setting a goal to have a weekly coffee date with a friend will do.
