I 16 doing so because I think keeping a diary in English is one of the effective ways to 17 our English writing ability. Compared with 18 forms of writing, it is shorter and 19 less time. It can help us to 20 the habit of thinking in English. 21 We persist in (坚持) this practice. Gradually well learn how to express ourselves in English. In keeping a diary in English, 22 can use the important phrases and sentences weve 23 in or out of English classes to describe our 24 , and this way we can master and use freely 25 weve learned, which will do good 26 us in English learning. But 27 we certainly run up against many difficulties. In the first place, it often happens that we have 28 finding proper words and phrases to give expression to our mind. Secondly, there 29 many idiomatic(惯用的) ways of saying things in Chinese. And it is extremely hard 30 us to put them into English properly . As far as I am concerned, my suggestion is that we _31_ always have a notebook and a Chinese-English dictionary within easy reach . Whenever _32_ beats （难倒）us, we can first put it down in our notebook and then look it up in our dictionary. We can also turn to our English teacher for _33_ , if necessary. In short, I believe that it is of _34_ use to keep a diary in English for the development of our _35_ skills. 16. A. imagine B. cant stand C. enjoy D. finish 17. A. get B. gain C. improve D. prove 18. A. other B. the other C. another D. others 19. A. spends B. takes C. pays D. spares 20. A. develop B. make C. give up D. pick 21. A. Before B. After C. If D.

A. to B. across C. between D. along 27. A. at a time B. at one time C. all the time D. at times 28. A. trouble B. difficulties C. chance D. choice 29. A. is B. has C. are D. have 30.

What should you do instead? The first thing you can do is trying to guess what the words means. Often the surrounding context gives a very clear idea of the meaning of the word. Even if you cant work out the meaning exactly, you may be able to get a vague idea, enough to enable you to continue reading. Sometimes it is impossible to guess the meaning of a word from the context and then you will have to decide whether the word is important enough to make it worthwhile stopping and looking it up in a dictionary or whether you can just pass it by. Many times in your reading, you will come across words which you dont know, but which do not prevent you from understanding all the main points of the text. You can made your dictionary use much more efficient if you only look up the words which are necessary to understand the text, and this means that you must develop the skill to decide whether the words are worth looking up.36. The passage mainly tells us in our reading what we would do_. A. without knowledge of English B. when we look up words in a dictionary C. when we are guessing new words D. without using a dictionary37. What does the underlined word “vague” mean? A. Mysterious B. Not clear C. Exact D. Important38. In our reading some words we dont know_. A. help us to understand the text well B. dont prevent us from understanding the main points of the text C. will be remembered forever D. are borrowed from other languages39. In this passage the writer_. A. advised us to use the dictionary as much as possible B. told us not to be discouraged by the sight of a dictionary C. gave us some advice on how to deal with these unknown words D. introduced some ways to take notes in the course of reading （B） Tourism wasnt as important as it is today. In the past, only people with a good deal of money could travel on holidays to other countries. More people travel today than in the past because there is a growing middle class in many parts of the world; that is to say, people now have more money for travel. Special plane fares for tourists make travel less expensive and more attractive than ever before. One person doesnt travel for the same reason as another. But most people enjoy seeing countries that are different from their own. They also like to meet new people and to taste new food. Tourism causes many changes in a country and in peoples lives. People build new hotels and restaurants and train native men and women as guides to show visitors interesting places. Therere new nightclubs and other amusements. International tourism is clearly a big business.40. In the old days_ could travel to other countries. A. boys and girls, men or women, young or old B. either kings or queens C. both the poor and the rich D. nobody but those who had money41. More people travel today than in the past because_. A. people have become interested in traveling B. traveling today is easier than in the past C. people now have spare money for travel D. great changes have taken place in the world42. What makes travel more attractive than before? A. Travel by air to other countries is much cheaper today. B. More guides are being trained to show beautiful spots. C. Modern telegraph lines make travel less expensive. D. New hotels and restaurants have been built.43. Which of the following statements is true according to the article? A. Tourism wont bring any changes in peoples minds. B. People have some trouble in making journey. C. With the development of tourism, great changes have taken place in many parts in the world. D. Tourism causes only some changes in clothing.(C) America is growing older. Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or older. Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect American society in many ways: education, medicine, and business. Quietly, the growing of America has made it a very different society, one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior is suitable at various ages. A persons age no longer tells you anything about his or her social position, marriage or health. Theres no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isnt as strong as it used to be. It doesnt surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing. Many people say, “I am much younger than my mother or my father was at my age.” No one says, “act your age” any more. Weve stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.44. It can be learnt from the text that the aging of the population in America_. A. has made people feel older B. has changed peoples social position C. has changed peoples understanding of age D. has slowed down the countrys social development 45. The underlined word one refers to_. A. society B. a family C. a place D. population 46. “Act your age” means people should_. A. be active when they are old B. do the right thing at the right age C. show respect for their parents, young or old D. take more physical exercise suitable to their age 47. If a 25-year-old man becomes general manager of a big firm, the writer of the text would most probably consider it_. A. normal B. wonderful C. unbelievable D. unreasonable(D)A driver stopped his car on a street side to have a rest. As he lay down in the seat and closed his eyes, a person came up and knocked at the window to ask the time. The driver opened his eyes and looked at his watch: “Its 8:05,” he said. Then he went to sleep again. But soon he was waken up again because a second person was knocking at the window. “Sir, do you know the time?” he asked. The driver looked at his watch again, and told him it was half past eight.In this way, the driver thought he could not have a good rest, so he wrote a short note and stuck it on the window for all to see. It said, “I dont know the time.”Again, he lay down in the seat for his sleep. A few minutes later, a third person came and began to knock at the window, “Hey, sir,” he said, “Its a quarter to nine.”48. Where did the driver sleep? A. At the window B. In the street road C. In his car D. In his room.49. How long had the driver been there when the third person called him? A. 40 minutes B. 25 minutes C. 50 minutes D. 70 minutes50. Why did the driver write a note and stick it on the window? A. Because he didnt know the time B. Because he didnt want anybody to trouble him C. Because he needed somebody to wake him up. D. Because he wanted somebody to tell him the time第二节七选五（5小题；每小题2分，共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。选项中有两项为多途选项。 Without plants, people could not live.

On one hand, they want to provide comfortable living and learning conditions for their children. On the other hand, what worries them is that too cosy conditions might lead to spoiled children without good qualities like perseverance, determination, and so on.I firmly believe that hard life is good for children. Children from poor families are usually independent and have strong will. Hard life makes them understand that their future lies in their own hands. They are grateful to whatever given to them by their parents. They seldom complain because they know complaints can only result in disappointment. Therefore, most of them are determined to change their present situation through hard work.With the fast development of Chinas economy, peoples living standards are greatly improved. However, I strongly recommend that parents should create chances for children to experience hard life, thus letting them realize the importance of valuing the present life and make good use of every minute to be prepared for the future.10
