But we were _27_ it could work.Chris, my brother, aged four, looked down at us with hesitation, asking in a _28_ voice, “Are you sure Ill land on the blanket?” But because of a problem at _29_ with his tongue being a bit attached to the mouth, it came out like this, “Ah you sho awill lan on da blanked?” “Yup!” I told him, “Were sure!” and he let go.How _30_ he was to trust us!

Now it was the turn of the contents. The crowd of dealers, collectors, bargain-hunters and plain sale-goers walked about examining this and that and generally having a last look round before the excitement of the sale. Every piece was numbered and listed, and everyone had a copy of the list. The sale was to take place in the largest room, the sitting room, which had been prepared. A few people were already waiting there. The room was half full of chairs. These carried the highest numbers, so that they could be put to ordinary use till near the end. In front of the fireplace stood the salesmans desk, a box-like piece of furniture with four steps. At work, the salesman stood a meter above everyone. He was trained to notice the slightest movement of a hand, an eye, or even an eyebrow, any of which might signal a bid. Beside the desk were a table and two chairs for the clerk and the cashier. Many of the sale goods were already here, some from the bedrooms looking out of place. Almost in the middle stood a big kitchen table covered by a blanket. The salesman came in and climbed on to his stand. His assistants followed him in and took their places. “Ladies and gentlemen, ”the salesman said, “I have been informed to tell you that everything must be sold this afternoon. No price is too low or too high for anything, but a price I must have for everything. We are now ready to begin, and we do so with Lot Number One ”At this point two strong-looking men lifted on to the central table a large wooden chest. It seemed too big for a modern house. “Lot Number One is an oak chest. Now what am I bid for this fine old chest? Do I hear 20? No? 10 then. Do I hear 10? e along, ladies and gentlemen, this chest is solid oak. The wood alone is worth 40, so make me an offer for Lot Number One, just to get us started. ”His eyes swung round the room. “One pound, ”a womans voice called. “One pound Im bid, ”said the salesman eagerly, “for this splendid chest. Any advance on 1 now? One pound Im bid. Do I hear two? No? Going at one pound then. No advance on 1? Going at 1. One pound. ”He brought his wooden hammer down sharply on to his desk. Sold for 1 to Mrs. Duke. Mrs. Duke is a dealer in second-hand furniture. 36. What use was made of the kitchen table? A. The salesman stood on it to conduct the sale. B. It was where the clerk and the cashier worked. C. It served as the stand for the things being sold. D. Two men sat on it during the business. 37. As it is used in the text, the term “a bid” refers to _. A. the present value of an article B. the agreed price of an article C. the added value of an article D. the price offered for an article 38. Why do you suppose Mrs. Duke wanted Lot Number One? A. Because it was low in price. B. She hoped to sell it for a nice profit（利润） C. She bought it in order to start the sale. D. Because she is a collector of old oak chests.BLearning English is one of the few things I have been doing consistently over the past 16 years. Like most Chinese students, I started learning English because it was a pulsory (必修的) course in my middle school. More importantly, English was a central subject for the college entrance exam.At that time, studying English was not a pleasant experience for me. There was no fun in the process of learning. The focus of our English education was getting a good mark in exams. And nobody told me that the real meaning of studying mother language was munication.When I became a university student, I spent nearly half of my time on English. In fact , more than 90 percent of the job offer ads in Shanghai list “ proficiency (精通) as a main requirement.How did I improve my English? People told me that TOEFL was very helpful and useful. As a result, I took a TOEFL training course and studied like mad. After six months preparation, I took part in the exam and got a high score. Later on, I had a chance to further my study in Britain. I soon discovered that all of my past English learning had been futile (没用的). When I first went shopping in a local supermarket, I really could not understand what the cashier was saying at all.It was then that I realized I had totally missed the point. Instead of just passing exams, the main function of learning English or any other language is munication. What is more, language does not exist independent of culture. Hence, mechanical memorization helps very little in munication. Thats why I was still unable to freely express myself after learning English for many years. By no means am I talented in any foreign language. I am still learning English. Why?First and foremost, my job requires me to use English everyday. Secondly, English helps me to have access to more information. Thirdly, as a bookworm, English gives me a chance to dive into the huge pool of inspiring English books. Last but not least, it is such a great experience to write in another language. Indeed, English has bee part of my life. 39.What is the purpose of studying English according to the writers idea?A. To get high marks in examsB. To prove that English is very important.C. Studying English well can help you get a good job.D. To use English for munication with others.40.According to the text, how is “my” English?A. I am good at English.B. I can speak English like natives.C. I can master it but I cant use it correctly.D. I continued to study English at university.41.How can we master English well?A. We need more mechanical memorization.B. We should read and recite more books.C. We should study English as well as its culture and use it more.D. We can study hard in classrooms and houses and get high marks in exams.CIn our culture, the sources of what we call a sense of “mastery” feeling important and worthwhile and the sources of what we call a sense of “pleasure” finding life enjoyable are not always the same. Women often are told “You cant have it all.” Sometimes what the speaker really is saying is: “You choose a career, so you cant expect to have closer relationships or a happy family life.” or “You have a wonderful husband and children whats all this about wanting a career?” But women need to understand and develop both aspects of well-being, if they are to feel good about themselves.Our study shows that, for women, well-being has two aspects. One is mastery, which includes self-respect, a sense of control over your life, and low levels of anxiety and depression. Mastery is closely related to the “doing” side of life, to work and activity. Pleasure is the other aspect, and it is made up of happiness, satisfaction and optimism. It is tied more closely to the “feeling” side of life. The two are independent of each other. A woman could be high in mastery and low in pleasure, and vice versa（反之亦然）. For example, a woman who has a good job, but whose mother has just died, might be feeling very good about herself and in control of her work life, but the pleasure side could be damaged for a time.The concepts of mastery and pleasure can help us identify the sources of well-being for women, and correct past mistakes. In the past, women were encouraged to look only at the feeling side of life as the source of all well-being. But we know that both mastery and pleasure are important. And mastery seems to be achieved largely through work. In our study, all the groups of employed women were valued significantly higher in mastery than women who were not employed.A womans well-being is developed when she takes on multiple roles. At least by middle adulthood, the women who were involved in a bination of roles marriages, motherhood, and employment were the highest in well-being, in spite of warnings about stress and strain.42. It can be inferred from the first paragraph that _.A. for women, a sense of “mastery” is more important than a sense of “pleasure”B. for women, a sense of “pleasure” is more important than a sense of “mastery”C. women cant have a sense of “mastery” and a sense of “pleasure” at the same timeD. a sense of “mastery” and a sense of “pleasure” are both necessary to women43. The authors attitude towards women having a career is_.A. negativeB. positiveC. indifferentD. realistic44. One can conclude from the passage that if a woman takes on several social roles, _.A. it will be easier for her to overe stress and strainB. she will be more successful in her careerC. her chances of getting promoted will be greaterD. her life will be richer and more meaningful45. Which of the following can be considered as a source of “pleasure” for women?A. Family lifeB. Multiple roles in societyC. Regular employmentD. Freedom from anxiety DAnthropologists are looking into the possibility that some European-looking Chinese in North-west China are the descendants(后裔) of a lost army from the Roman Empire.Experts at the newly established Italian Studies Center at Lanzhou University in Gansu province will excavate a section of the Silk Road, a 7,000-kilometer trade route that linked Asia and Europe more than 2,000 years ago, to see whether there are remains of Roman soldiers in China. They hope to prove the legend by digging the Road and discovering more evidence of Chinas early contact with the Roman Empire.Before Marco Polos travels to China in the 13th century, the only known contact between the two empires was a visit by Roman diplomats in 166 AD.Chinese archeologists were therefore surprised in the 1990s to find the remains of an ancient defense structure in Liqian, a remote town in Yongchang county on the edge of a desert area, that was strikingly similar to Roman defense structures. They were even more astonished to find Western-looking people with green, deep-set eyes, long hooked noses and blond hair.Though the villagers said they had never traveled outside the county, they worshipped(崇尚) bulls and their favorite game was similar to the ancient Romans bull-fighting dance.DNA tests in xx confirmed some of the villagers were indeed of foreign origin, leading many experts to conclude they are descendants of an ancient Roman army headed by general Marcus Crassus.In 53 BC, Crassus was defeated and killed by the Parthians, a tribe(部落) occupying what is now Iran, putting an end to Romes eastward expansion. But a army of 6,000 men led by Crassus eldest son apparently escaped and was never found again.Though some experts are convinced the Roman-looking villagers in Yongchang county are the descendants of the soldiers, others are not so certain.A professor at Beijing Normal University believes that there were many chances for trans-national marriages because the county is on the Silk Road, and the “foreign” origin of the Yongchang villagers does not necessarily mean they are of ancient Roman origin.46. What does the underlined word in the second paragraph probably mean?A. Dig.B. Defend.C. Repair.D. Protect.47. The Chinese local villagers and Romans are similar in the following aspects EXCEPT that _.A. they have similar appearanceB. their defense structures are similarC. they have the same characterD. they both worship bulls48. The villagers in Yongchang county may not be of ancient Roman origin because _.A. the results of DNA tests may be wrongB. their ancestors might have married other foreignersC. they are of the Parthian originD. Crassus was defeated and killed.49. From the passage, we know that _.A. the ancestors of the Liqian villagers are from ancient RomeB. the research on the origin of the Liqian villagers is still under wayC. Romans built the ancient defense structures in LiqianD. the Liqian villagers are not of foreign origin50. Where might the passage be taken from?A. A science fiction.B. A book review.C. A travel guide.D. A news story.第四部分：任务型阅读(共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分) 请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后图表中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填1个单词。I used to be the messiest person alive. Over the years, through watching others and by trial and error, I have finally found ways to e up with plans, organize them and follow through with them. Make an outline of everything you need to have and do to make your plan happen. Make a list of all of the steps that need to be acplished and think about what needs to be done.Detail everything thoroughly and read over it so you can start ing up with some mental solutions of how to carry out your plans. You should ensure that if for some reason way one doesnt work, you have way two and way three to lean back on. Therefore, different ways are needed at hand. Its just a matter of being organized. Chances are that there is always more than one way of doing things, and chances are that if one of those ways doesnt work, one of the other ones will. mitting yourself to finishing at least part if not all of your plan at once is also necessary. It will show that you not only have initiative to get things rolling, but that you are interested in the results obtained with making the move to get everything done.If you make a mitment to finish before a specific time, make sure that you carry that out, and be sure to do everything in the way you said you would, within the time-frame you set for yourself. Dont try to tackle more things all at a time. All that does is delay your progress, distract you and make you lose your interest, motivation and energy.Carryin
