And if I have to give him a certain amount of money. What is to prevent me keeping all the money left and claiming that the robber had taken it?” Just then a tall and strong man walked in, wearing a mask. “This is a holdup!” the man said. Roughly, taking a gun from his pocket and stepping over to Georges cage. “All right, hand it over!” “Yes, sir,” said George. “Would you like it in ten-or twenty-dollar bills?”“Just hand it over!” said the robber. George took all the bills from the top section close to six thousand dollars. He passed them through the window. The robber snatched them, stuffed them into his pocket, and turned to leave. Then, while everyone was watching the robber, George calmly lifted off the top section of the cashbox and slipped bills from the bottom section into his pockets. The door swung and the robber was gone. George fell down and fainted. When he came to he smiled up at the worried faces looking down at him. “Im all right,” he stated bravely.“You might just as well go home, George.” Mr. Bell, the chief accountant, said.As soon as he was safely behind his bedroom door, George took the money from his pockets and counted it. Seven thousand dollars!The next morning when George arrived at the bank, it was not open for business, but everyone was there, helping to check the banks accounts. George was called into Mr. Burrows office. The bank president seemed strangely cheerful. “George,” he said, “I want you to meet Mr. Charles, who used to be president of our bank.”“Good morning, George,” said the former president. “I was extremely sorry to hear you fainted yesterday. Are you all right now?”“Yes, sir, just fine, thanks.”“I was sorry to give you a hard time yesterday, but with all the banks being robbed these days, I played my little game yesterday, just to keep everybody on his toes.” “I dont understand,” said George. “What game?”The old man laughed and quickly took out a mask. He placed it over his face and said, “All right. Hand it over!” Mr. Burrows laughed but George didnt.“And the money?” George asked in a faint voice.“Dont worry,” Mr. Charles said. “I put it all back in your cashbox- all six thousand. Were just finishing up the check-up now.” Behind them, the door opened and Mr. Bell put his head into the room. “Mr. Burrows,” he said gravely, “may I see you a moment?”56. George Pickens wished for a robbery because it would _.A. show that the bank was importantB. help him take money without being caughtC. make him look like a heroD. give Mr. Burrows a good lesson 57.

From the ending of the story, we know Mr.Bell had discovered that _. A. seven thousand dollars was missingB. Mr. Charles had not returned the six thousand dollarsC. no money was missingD. George had not returned six thousand dollars which was stolenBWhat would you think if you went back to school on Monday and there were no desks or chairs in your classroom? Thats what some fourth-and-fifth-graders at a school in Minnesota discovered earlier this year when they took part in a research project to see if changing their classrooms would make them more active. Researchers from the Mayo Clinic were concerned about reports that as many as half of American kids could be seriously overweight - or obese - by the year xx. So they set up a different kind of classroom, which you might see in the future. Instead of desks, the Elton Hills Elementary students had adjustable work stations where they could stand, kneel on mats or sit on big exercise balls. Students were given laptops and iPods that allowed them to move and learn at the same time. Sensors (传感器) were attached to the kids legs to calculate how many calories students burned in their new set-up. Their typical school day was probably not anything like yours. One group of students downloaded an audio file (有声文件) of their teacher reading a book; they listened to it while walking for exercise. Another group took a spelling test by listening to their iPods. Some students liked the freedom, but others missed the traditional classroom. I dont like standing up, Mariah Matrious said. My legs get tired, and I like sitting down. So, did the experiment work? Researchers still are studying the data, but early results indicate that the kids did move around more in the new classroom. It showed us that, given the opportunity to move, kids will move, said researcher Lorraine Lanningham-Foster. Thats important because studies have shown that even simple movement - climbing stairs instead of taking an elevator(电梯), for example, or washing dishes by hand instead of loading the dishwasher - can be as important as formal exercise when it es to controlling ones weight. 59. The school in Minnesota carried out the research _.A. to punish the badly performed students B. to prevent children from being too fat C. to spare a lot of money for the state D. to meet the needs of different children60. The newly designed classrooms are different from the traditional ones EXCEPT that _.A. there were no desks and chairsB. the students can move and learn at the same timeC. students in different groups are given different tasksD. teachers dont necessarily instruct the students61. According to Lorraine Lanningham-Foster, _.A. the research got some expected results B. the experiment needs further changesC. not everyone liked the freedom of this new styleD. The students should be taught without classrooms62. What would be the best title for the text?A. No Desks or Chairs in the Classroom B. New Classrooms in the FutureC. School Takes a Stand Against Obesity D. Washing dishes by hand in the Classroom C American researchers found females are the more talkative sex because of a special “language protein(蛋白质)” in the brain.The study, conducted by neuroscientists （神经学家）and psychologist from the University of Maryland, concluded that women talked more because they had more of the Foxp2 protein. The research, published in the Journal of Neuroscience, found that higher levels were found among humans that were women but in rats that were males. Their findings came after it was previously claimed that ladies speak about 20,000 words a day over 13,000 more than men. This study is one of the first to report a sex difference in the expression of a language-associated protein in humans or animals,” said Prof Margaret McCarthy, who led the study. In their study, the researchers attempted to determine what might make male rats more vocal than their female friends. They separated four-day-old rats from their mothers and then counted the number of times they cried out in the “ultrasonic range”, the frequencies higher than humans can hear, over five minutes. While both sexes called out hundreds of cries, the males called out twice as often, they found. But when the pups were returned to their mothers cage, she fussed over her sons first. Tests conducted on the parts of the brain known to be associated with vocalcalls showed the male pups have up to twice as much Foxp2 protein as the females. The researchers then increased the production in the brains of female pups and reduced it in males. This led to the female rats crying out more often and their mothers showing more interest to them. In contrast, males became less “talkative”.The researchers then tested samples from ten children, aged between three and five, which showed that females had up to 30 per cent more of the Foxp2 protein than males, in a brain area key to language in humans.“Based on our observations, we assume higher levels of Foxp2 in girls and higher levels of Foxp2 in male rats is an indication that Foxp2 protein levels are associated with the more municative sex,” said Prof McCarthy.Our results imply Foxp2 as a ponent of the neurobiological basis of sex differences in vocal munication in mammals.63. From the second paragraph, we can learn that _.A. women always speak more words than menB. men and male rats have low levels of language proteinC. women and male rats have similar levels of Foxp2D. McCarthy isnt the first to find females more talkative64. The underlined phrase “fussed over” in the third paragraph probably means_.A. paid attention to B. related toC. put pressure onD. counted on65. The researchers carried out the experiments on rats in order to _.A. test which part of the brain is key to language in rats and humansB. prove the levels of Foxp2 protein in humans and rats are differentC. determine the reason why female rats are more talkative than male ratsD. discover the association between Foxp2protein and vocal munication66. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage ? A. Tests on humans and ratsB. Why women are the talkative sex C. Sex differences in Foxp2 protein D. Foxp2 protein determines oral ability第II卷(共35分)第四部分：任务型阅读(共10小题：每小题1分，满分10分)You have probably heard it before, most likely from your English teacher. If you want to bee a good writer, read good writing. Unfortunately, you may not have understood what did good to you and even what you were supposed to get from that experience. As you start reading a book, poem, or story, do so with no thought at all and the experience will improve your writing. Just read for pleasure to begin with, or to learn. As you progress through the work, think about whether or not it is easy reading. Do you bee so interested in the subject and flow of the writing that you pletely forget the person who wrote it, or does the position sometimes call too much attention to itself through words and phrases that seem out of place or unexpected? These latter situations are a chance to learn from the writers mistakes. In fact, the reader should not have to worry about how an author does his thing. he should be able to just enjoy and learn. Every time a word strikes you as poorly chosen, stop to consider why it has this effect. Also, do not spend a lot of time analyzing the passage but put more efforts in enjoying it from the whole. A
