Early in the 1900s most American towns and cities had a Main Street. Main Street was always in the heart of a town. This street was 1 on both sides with many 2 businesses. Here, shoppers walked into stores to look at all sorts of merchandise: clothing, furniture, hardware, groceries. 3 , some shops offered 4 .These shops included drugstores, restaurants, shoe-repair stores, and barber or hairdressing shops. 5 in the 1950s, a change began to 6 .Too many automobiles had crowded into Main Street while too few parking places were 7 shoppers. Because the streets were crowded, merchants began to look with interest at the open spaces 8 the city limits. Open space is what their car-driving customers needed. And open space is what they got when the first shopping centre was built. Shopping centres, or rather malls, 9 as a collection of small new stores 10 crowded city centres. 11 by hundreds of free parking space, customers were drawn away from 11 areas to outlying malls. And the growing 12 of shopping centres led 13 to the building of bigger and better stocked stores. By the late 1970s, many shopping malls had almost developed into small cities themselves. In addition to providing the 15 of one stop shopping, malls were transformed into landscaped parks, with benches, fountains, and outdoor entertainment. 1. A. builtB. designedC. intendedD. lined 2.

Using microwaves to directly heat owners of a room would save much of the energy wasted by heating walls and furniture. And despite popular ideas about microwaves, this technique would be safe, according to Charles R. Burlier of the Microwave Research Center in Marlborough, New Hampshire. Low-power microwaves only penetrate (贯穿) the skin (low-power microwave penetration in a ham is about 0.2 inches, for example) and with no negative effects. To test this idea, Buffler subjected himself to microwaves in a special room using a standard 500-watt, 2459 MHz magnetron (磁控管). He found that a person will start to feel warmth at about 20 kilowatts per square centimeter (mw. / sq. cm. ) ; a satisfactory feeling of warmth occurs between 35 and 50 mw. / sq. cm. By parison, a person standing in noonday summer sun feels the amount of 85 mw. / sq. cm. And a frozen meat pie in your microwave oven receives about 1000 mw. / sq. cm. In houses of the future, each room could be provided with its own magnetron, says Buffler. When you stepped into the living room, for example, a motion detector (运动感应器)would turn on the magnetron, filling the room with low-power microwaves. In the same way that a microwave oven heats up a hamburger, but not the plate its on, you would feel warmth from the microwaves without changing the temperature of your coffee table. (You could, however, make your favorite easy chair even more fortable by treating it with a radiation-absorbing chemical.) While it might be some time before homeowners are fortable enough with the idea to set up whole-body microwave heaters in houses, Buffler says microwaves may attract livestock(家畜) farmers. Lambs that are born outdoors in winter, for example, are frequently lost to cold. Microwaves could warm the lambs safely and quickly.26. Which of the following can tell the main idea of the passage?A. A new heating system.B. A new microwave oven.C. A popular technique.D. The magnetron.27. According to Paragraph 2, which of the following does not describe the characteristics of a microwave heater?A. It directly heats people in a room. B. It heats walls and furniture in a room.C. It is safe. D. It saves energy28. The test conducted by Buffler shows that when a person feels fortable warmth, he receives about _.A. 20 mw. / sq. cm. B. 40 mw. / sq. cm.C. 60 mw. / sq. cm. D. 85 mw. / sq. cm.29. According to Paragraph 4, which of the following fills the room with low-power microwaves?A. The magnetron.B. The motion detector.C. The microwave oven.D. The radiation-absorbing chemical.30. Which of the following statements about microwave heaters would Buffler most probably agree with? A. Microwave heaters will soon be widely used by homeowners. B. Microwave heaters sometimes make people feel unfortable. C. Perhaps microwave heaters will be first used by livestock farmers, who wish to protect their lambs in winter.D. Microwave heaters cannot be accepted by the public because they are somewhat unsafe.

If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness then pain must be equal to unhappiness. But in fact, the opposite is true: more often than not things that lead to happiness involve some pain.As a result, many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious mitment（承担的义务）, self - improvement.Ask a bachelor（单身汉） why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. If he is honest he will tell you that he is afraid of making a mitment. For mitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure, excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features.Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole nights sleep or a three - day vacation. I dont know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children. But couples who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild.Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations. It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy: we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.36According to the author, a bachelor resists marriage chiefly because _ .A. he is reluctant to take on family responsibilitiesB. he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains singleC. he finds more fun in dating than in marriageD. he fears it will put an end to all his fun adventure and excitement37Raising children, in the authors opinion is _ .A. a moral duty B. a thankless jobC. a rewarding task D. a source of inevitable pain38From the last paragraph, we learn that envy sometimes stems from _ .A. hatredB. misunderstandingC. prejudiceD. ignorance39To understand what true happiness is one must _ .A. have as much fun as possible during ones lifetimeB. make every effort to liberate oneself from painC. put up with pain under all circumstancesD. be able to distinguish happiness from fun40What is the author trying to tell us?A. Happiness often goes hand in hand with painB. One must know how to attain happiness.C. It is important to make mitments. D. It is pain that leads to happiness.DIn a few years, you might be able to speak Chinese, Korean, Japanese, French, and English and all at the same time. This sounds incredible, but Alex Waibel, a puter science professor at USs Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) and Germanys University of Karlsruhe, announced last week that it may soon be reality. He and his team have invented software and hardware that could make it far easier for people who speak different languages to understand each other.One application, called Lecture Translation, can easily translate a speech from one language into another. Current translation technologies typically limit speakers to certain topics or a limited vocabulary. Users also have to be trained how to use the programme.Another prototype(雏形机) can send translations of a speech to different listeners depending on what language they speak. “It is like having a simultaneous translator right next to you but without disturbing the person next to you,” Waibel said.Prefer to read? So-called Translation Glasses transcribe(转录) the translations on a tiny liquid-crystal(液晶) display(LCD) screen.Then theres the Muscle Translator. Electrodes capture the electrical signals from facial muscle movements made naturally when a person is mouthing words. The signals are then translated into speech. The electrodes could be replaced with wireless chips implanted in a persons face, according to researchers.During a demonstration held last Thursday in CMUs Pittsburgh campus, a Chinese student named Stan Jou had 11 tiny electrodes attached to the muscles of his cheeks, neck and throat. Then he mouthed without speaking aloud a few words in Mandarin(普通话) to the audience. A few seconds later, the phrase was displayed on a puter screen and spoken out by the puter in English and Spanish: “Let me introduce our new prototype.”This particular gadget(器械),when fully developed, might allow anyone to speak in any number of languages or, as Waibel put it, “to switch your mouth to a foreign language”. “The idea behind the universitys prototypes is to create good enough bridges for cross-cultural exchanges that are being more mon in the world,” Waibel said.With spontaneous(自发的) translators, foreign drivers in Germany could listen to traffic warnings on the radio, tourists in China could read all the signs and talk with local people, and leaders of different countries could have secret talks without any interpreters there.41. Which of the following statements is not TRUE?A. A lecture translation can translate what you said into other languages easily.B. There is no Muscle Translator in the world now.C. Muscle Translators can translate what you think into speech if you just move your mouth.D. The spontaneous translators will help us a lot.42. What kind of equipment is NOT mentioned in this passage?A. Lecture Translation. B. Muscle Translator.C. Multiple Translator. D. Translation Prototype.43. Whats the final destination of inventing the language translators?A. To make cultural exchanges between different countries easier.B. To help students learn foreign languages more easily.C. To make people live in foreign countries more fortably.D. To help people learn more foreign languages in the future.44. What can be inferred from the seventh paragraph?A. The translator is so good that it can translate any language into the very language you need.B. The translator is being more and more mon in the world as a bridge.C. With the help of the translator, you only need to open your mouth when you want to say something without saying the exact words at all.D. The translator needs to be improved before being put into market.45. Where can this passage probably be excerpted from?A. A newspaper. B. A magazine on science.C. A fairy tale. D. A scientific fantasy book.第二节 信息匹配(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)请阅读下面应用文和相关信息，按照要求进行匹配，并在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。 首先，请阅读下列广告信息：A.
