was the most famous Westerner to visit Asia during the Middle Ages.His father，Nicolo Polo，and his uncle were wealthy traders who regularly travelled to parts of the East.They visited Cathay(the old name for China) and became friends with Kublai Khan，the great Mongol Emperor.It was only when they returned to Italy from China that Marco，who was now 15 years old，first met his father.Marco decided to join them for their next trip.It took them more than three years to travel the 9,000 miles to Shangtu，capital of the Mongol Empire.The great Khan gave them a warm wele and they stayed in his huge marble palace.Soon young Marco became a great favourite of the Emperor and was one of his most trusted friends.Marco quickly learned the Chinese language and customs because he travelled around and talked to many people.Before he reached the age of thirty he was made Governor of Yangchow Province.The rest of his time was spent either at the emperial court or on long tours of the outlying regions，gathering information for the Emperor.After nearly seventeen years in the East，Marco and his father prepared to return home.The first part of their journey was by sea，then they continued by land from the Persian Gulf.When they finally arrived back in Venice their family and friends were surprised to see them again.They had been away for almost 25 years and everybody thought that they must have died a long time before.36Why did Marco Polo decide to travel to the East?ABecause his father was a traveler.BBecause he wanted to seek wealth in the East.CBecause he loved to see more of the world.DNot stated in the passage.37How long did Marco travel back from the East to Italy?A3 years. B8 years.C5 years. DNone of the above38Which of the statements inferred from the passage is NOT true?AMarco was born in his fathers absence.BMarco was a learned scholar on Chinese culture.CWhen Marco finally returned home，the new century had just begun.DThe journey back home was more difficult than the journey to China.39Where can you most probably find this passage?AIn a historical symposium(研讨会)BIn a historical reader.CIn a daily newspaper.DIn a popular magazine.BChildren who spend more time reading with their parents have a greater chance of being better readers than those who dont.With the help from their parents，children can learn techniques to improve their reading skills.“A lot of parents think after their child learns to read，they should stop reading to them，”Donna George said.“They are sadly mistaken.”George offers her services to parents at the Title I Learning Centers.She said reading aloud to children may be the most valuable thing parents can do.“It is better for children to hear things at a higher level than where they are，”George said.“Parents are their childs first teacher.”Parents help their children build listening，phonics(语音), prehension and vocabulary skills when they read aloud to them.Before parents can identify reading problems, they should escape the enemytelevision and limit the time their children spend watching television.George suggested not allowing kids to have a TV in their bedrooms，setting a schedule of when kids can watch or keeping a list of how many programs children watch.Louise Joines said while her 14yearold daughter and 10yearold son enjoy reading，the television sometimes bees a distraction.So she tries to build the situation by suggesting books the entire family will enjoy reading together，like the Harry Potter series.Parents who do not read themselves should not count on their children being enthusiastic about it.If parents would read to their children at least 15 minutes every day, children would not have so many problems in school.It is the parents job to help build that desire in their children，and of course to know what kind of books to read is also important.40According to George，reading aloud to children _.Ahelp them correct mistakesBis helpful to their readingCis parents first duty to their childrenDcan get children out of televisions attraction41The underlined word in Paragraph 4 means something that _.Acan improve childrens readingBcan help childrens right way of readingCcan make children interested in readingDcan make children not attentive42What does the fourth paragraph mainly want to show is important?AReading skills.BReading speed.CReading materials.DReading environment.43If the passage is not pleted，which of the following can follow the fifth paragraph?AParents choose reading materials for their children.BAdvice is given to control their children.CWhat TV programs children can watch during reading.DHow children improve their reading by themselves.CThere are lots of sights to see on the Big Island of Hawaii.The island is filled with lush foliage (叶子)，tropical wildlife，and natural views.There are things such as volcanoes，pineapple farms.Visitors get to see things that many tourists never even know exist.Visitors are kept safe and secure by using an experienced guide pany.Sightseeing can be pleted by many means of transportation.There is something for everyone；they just have to decide the time they have and the amount of energy they wish to expend(花费)One of the favorite forms of sightseeing is by hiking.The island has a number of hiking trails.Kayaking(划独木舟)is another favored method of getting around.Kayaks can take the tourist to areas inaccessible by other means.There is also horseback riding，fourwheeling，and helicopters.There are several choices to choose from，offering something that attracts everyone.What the tourist gets to see and do is directly affected by the choice they make in moving about the Hawaiian Islands.Helicopters can show the entire Big Island in one trip，but the tourist does not get to see anything up close and personal.Seeing the island by air，offers a view that is unequaled(无可比拟的)by any other method.An ecotour is more than the thing for people who wish to get up close and personal with the land and nature in the Big Island.Hiking，biking，kayaking，and more are the order of the day.However，these tours offer unbelievable experiences.Participants get to interact with nature.The Big Island of Hawaii also offers coach tours.Tourists are able to move quickly，efficiently，and fortably from sight to sight.It gives the tourist the opportunity to see a lot of things in a short period of time.This is perfect for those who prefer to enjoy the culture of the island.44What would be the BEST title for the passage?ABig Island Sightseeing Tour Offers Many OpportunitiesBSeveral Tips on Traveling on the Big Island of HawaiiCThe Most Popular Places of Interest on the Big IslandDThe Different Cultures and Customs of the Big Island45If you want a safe and secure tour of the Big Island，you should_.Amake a good plan ahead of timeBtravel with your close friendsCchoose the best transportationDuse an excellent guide pany46The underlined word“inaccessible”in Paragraph 3 probably means_.Aeasy to get to Bdifficult to reachCdangerous to cover Dimpossible to find47If you want to enjoy the whole view of the island，youd better travel_.Aby hiking Bby bikeCby air Dby kayakingDThe man who found an easier way for people to cut grass and weeds died in Houston on June 25th.He was 85 years old.George Ballas was born in Louisiana.He joined the military at 17.He served in World War and the Korean War.After the military，he became a dance teacher in the dance school.In the 1950s，he built a dance studio of his own in Houston.People called it the biggest in the world.But Mr.Ballas sold the studio in 1964.By the early seventies，he was on to the next big thing.The idea had e to him at a car wash.He watched the needlelike bristles(刷子毛)of the brushes as they went round and round against his car.Could a similar idea be used to cut grass in places out of reach of someone pushing a lawn mower(割草机)？To find out，he placed lengths of fishing line through holes in a tin can.He attached the can to the spinning(旋转)part of a grass machine.The result？A revolution for millions of people who cut grass for a living or just to keep their neighbors happy.George Ballas became known as the “Weed King”As he once told the Houston Chronicle，“A Weed Eater es along once in a lifetime.”His invention now still works well in corners and along walls and fences.The noise may not be the nicest，but nor is a loud mower.Just as weed expert Bill Curran at Penn State University points out，they avoid the use of chemicals.Or the labor of pulling weeds by hand.48Before teaching in a dance school，George _.Aserved in the armyBstudied in a military schoolCwas a dance studio builderDmade a living by cutting grass49How long did George keep his dance studio?A15 years. B20 years.CLess than 14 years. DMore than 50 years.50Which of the following is NOT true of Georges invention?AIt is weled by people.BIt made him bee a weed expert.CIt could be used where mowers cant reach.DHe thought of the idea when washing his car.51We know from the last paragraph that_.Athe machine makes loud noiseBthe machine can work on walls and fencesCGeorge Ballas became famous for his inventionsDGeorge Ballas had worked at Penn State UniversityEOutdoor Survival Provides Adventure WorldwideAlthough there are no state controlled survival courses in Britain or the United States，there are various independent organizations offering similar activities.Students can take part in outdoor training courses through university clubs and societies.Anyone can register(登记，注册)with such groups，which then organize courses，training and trips for all members.One of the most popular outdoor training programmes in both the US and Britain，is Outward Bound(户外训练)It was founded in 1941 in Wales and attracts hundreds of thousands of adventurous types every year.The courses are intended to broaden minds through experiences that build confidence，selfesteem(自尊)and character.As well as specialist courses such as canoeing，leadership skills and sailing，participants can take part in week long adventure training camps which include a host of sports and survival training education skills.Michael Williams，an American student，took part in an Outward Bound course last year.He said：“We learned lots of first aid skills，lots of natural history，lots of environmental facts，and took part in a wildlife preservation programme.Beyond that，my favourite skills learned were sailing and rock climbing.”Courses can last up to 40 days and are open to anyone over the age of 14.Students must be in general good health，but do not need to be experienced in outdoor sports.There is no selection process；everyone is wele，although new participants are advised to pick a course matching their physical capacity(体力)Most of the British courses take place in the Brecon Beacons in Wales.Another similar organization is the UK Survival School，which includes courses on learning to live with the environment，sailing and winter survival.On a basic survival weekend students will learn how to get water and food，how to make fire and cook with it，to find and build a shelter，control survival life support，how to cross rivers，send off a distress signal，and to use passes by day and night.According to the leaders，such adventures are“an awakening，an exploration into the unknown”Outward Bound believes that participants will“use mind and body traveling some of the Earths roughest wilderness areas.”52From the first paragraph，we know_.Astudents are not allowed to take courses in the state schoolsBstudents can take survival courses in the state schoolsCsurvival courses are banned in Britain and the USDsurvival courses are not offered in the state school53The advantage of the training courses is that_.Aparticipants can make friends with othersBparticipants can visit some places of interestCparticipants can experience different adventuresDparticipants can learn how wonderful nature is54In an Outward Bound course last year，the most exciting experience Michael Williams had was_.ALearning first aid skillsBcollecting facts of environmentCrock climbing and sailingDpreserving wildlife55Whats the writers purpose to write this passage?ATo persuade readers to take part in the training courses.BTo tell readers the danger of this training course.CTo introduce the wonders of the world to readers.DTo introduce the training course to readers.任务型读写(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)Psychologists tell us that there are four basic stages that human beings pass through when they enter and live in a new culture.This process, which helps us deal with culture shock, is the way our brain and our personality reacts to the strange new things we meet with when we move from one culture to another.Culture shock begins with the “honeymoon stage”This is the period of time when we first arrive in which everything about the new culture is strange and exciting.We may be suffering from “jet lag” but we are thrilled to be in the new environment.You see new sights, hear new sounds and language and eat new kinds of food.This honeymoon stage can last for quite a long time because we feel we are involved in some kind of great adventure.Unfortunately, the second stage of culture shock can be more difficult.After we have settled down into our new life，we can bee very tired and begin to miss our homeland and our family.This period of cultural adjustment can be very difficult and lead to the new arrival rejecting or pulling away from the new culture.This “rejection stage”can be quite dangerous because the visitor may develop unhealthy habits.This stage is considered a crisis in the process of cultural adjustment and many people choose to go back to their homeland or spend all their time with people from their own culture speaking their native language.Almost all the little problems that everybody has in daily life seem to be much bigger and more disturbing when faced within a foreign culture.The third stage of culture shock is called the “adjustment stage”This is when you begin to realize that things are not so bad in the host culture.Your sense of humour usually bees stronger and you realize that you are being stronger by learning to take care of yourself in the new place.Things are still difficult, but you are now a survivor!The fourth stage can be called “adaptation stage”Now you feel quite fortable in your new surroundings.You can cope with most problems that occur.You may still have problems with the language, but you know you are strong enough to deal with them.If you meet someone from your country who has just arrived, you can be the expert on life in the new culture and help them to deal with their culture shock.There is a fifth stage of culture shock which many people dont know about.This
