He constantly looks down at the desk or his work, afraid to move his eyesight elsewhere. Occasionally, hell glance your way but only to look back down again. Its clear from his body language that he is unfortable, but theres no way in making him feel at home. Theres nothing wrong with him. He is just introvert (内向的).In some countries, the introvert may find their way of life easily. However, in the US, the extrovert (外向的) are everywhere talking, shouting and laughing for the world to hear. America is a nation that believes in the freedom of speech. Theres nothing we love more than the right to speak as we please, so much that the burning of the American flag is a protected speech. Though its looked down upon, the ashes of an American flag will not lead to a punishment of any kind. Its legal. What seems not to be legal, however, is shyness. In our nation, those who fear of speaking will not get by. Of course, speaking helps make the mind excited, improve ones thoughts, and build a sense of confidence that wouldnt have been produced. It may be unfortable and embarrassing, but its all worthwhile in the end.Although the importance of social confidence is widely recognized, its not unheard of to see introverts succeed in various activities. In college, for example, they would be studying rather than spending the day with friends. They would be seen in a library rather than at a social event. Although these types of students lack the outgoing personality, they do not always lack the desire to succeed. If they are content without speaking their mind, so be it. 5. Which of the following is probably NOT an introvert students school behavior?A. Seldom speaking out. B. Avoiding teachers eyes.C. Laughing out loud. D. Not feeling at home.6. What will probably happen if you burn the American flag?A. You will be called an introvert. B. You will be put in prison. C. You deserve some punishment. D. Nothing serious will arise.7. Whats the writers attitude towards the introvert?A. They can just be themselves. B. Theyre quite socially confident.C. Its embarrassing to be with them. D. They should learn to be more outgoing.8. Where is the passage most probably from?A. An article on educational psychology.B. A diary of a college student.C. A research essay on brain science. D. An American newspaper on social events.CSoda is refreshing and delicious, but it is not part of a healthy, balanced diet. Most sodas are packed with sugar. In fact, a can of soda can be hiding up to 10 teaspoons of sugar! The sugar does make soft drinks delicious, but definitely not nutritious. Too much sugar in a persons diet can lead to diabetes (糖尿病), heart disease, and tooth problems. One of the biggest sugary soda problems is that drinking much can lead to weight gain and even obesity.There are diet options available for almost every kind of pop (汽水), which means that you dont have to drink all that sugar in order to enjoy a can of soda. Many studies have been done on whether or not aspartame (甜味剂), the sugar substitute in diet soda, is bad for you. Up to now, there are still conflicting opinions on this issue. The European Food Safety Authority recently concluded that aspartame is safe for most people, even in fairly large amounts. Aspartame still might not be good for you, though. Studies have shown that people who drink diet sodas may actually gain more weight than those who drink regular soda, perhaps because, strangely enough, drinks loaded with fake sugar may actually make you want to eat more.Maybe youve decided its time to cut down on your soda drinking, but what should you drink instead? Water is absolutely the healthiest thing that you can drink. Your body needs water to stay hydrated (含水的) and function properly, and water contains no calories or fat. Drinking fruit juice occasionally is not a bad thing, but you should be careful what juice and how much juice youre drinking. Fruit juices can contain almost as much sugar as pop!As with most things to do with your health, moderation is really at the base of any healthy diet. You can totally drink soda, even the sugary kind just, make sure youre not drinking too much!9. What can we know about sugar in Paragraph 1?A. Sugar is a necessary material in making Soda. B. Too much sugar may cause health problems. C. Sugar can make Soda delicious and nutritious.D. Sugar can lead to much fat or even obesity.10. What does the author think of aspartame in diet Soda?A. He agrees that aspartame might not be good for health. B. He believes large amounts of aspartame is safe for people.C. He thinks that aspartame may do great harm to health.D. He insists that aspartame is much safer than sugar.11. What does the author advise us to drink more?A. Tea. B. Fruit juice. C.Pop D. Water.DIve personally traveled through many countries that have had U.S. government warnings issued for them, and Ive been perfectly safe. Specifically, in the last year, I have travelled safely to both the Philippines and Mexico, and traveled to many South Pacific islands during the tropical cyclone (热带气旋) season and only experienced two days of light rain in six months!. This is, of course, anecdotal, so its important that you do your research before booking your trip.One thing I remend doing is checking for recent posts on travel forums (论坛), such as Lonely Planets Thorntree, to see what people are saying about the country youll visit in terms of safety. The U.S. government may make out that an entire country is extremely unsafe when in reality, its a small part of it that tourists will be unlikely to visit. Read the travel warnings, too, to see which parts of the country the government remends that you avoid.Additionally, its worth speaking to your travel insurance provider before you leave to check that youll be covered during your travels to these countries. Some insurance panies wont cover you if theres a severe warning for the country, but some will. Travel insurance is a necessity, so its definitely something to check out before you leave.Keep in mind that the U.S. government will help you with emergency evacuation (撤离) from a troubled country, but it es in the form of a repatriation (归国) loan via the Office of American Citizens Services and Crisis Management (ACS), which can be called to rescue you from a bad situation abroad. Remember by heart that youll have to wait overseas for the money to arrive and eventually repay the loan once youre home safely. Just another reason to get travel insurance!12. What should you do before a travel according to Paragraph 1?A. Make a good route plan.B. Read the travel books first.C. Ask the government for help.D. Make a careful study of the trip.13. What does the author advise you to check for on travel forums.A.Travel safety.B. Lonely planet.C.Tourist places.D. Weather forecast.14. Why is it necessary to know about travel insurance panies?A. They sometimes offer bad service. B. They may provide false information.C. They seldom talk with customers. D. Some of them dont cover all the countries.15. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Getting travel insurance is the best choice. B. U.S government is very generous.C. Its easy to escape from a troubled country. D. ACS will repay the loan for you.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。As a child grows up，you may wonder how you can teach him to bee a respectful adult 16 A child who learns to respect not only learns to receive respect from others in kind，but als learns to respect himself.

It can help us to develop the habit of thinking in English. If we persist in this practice, gradually well learn how to express_44 _ (us) in English. In keeping a diary in English, we certainly run up against many difficulties. In _45_first place, it often happens that we have trouble _46 _(find) appropriate words and phrases to give expression to our mind. Secondly, there are many idiomatic ways of saying things in Chinese. And it is _47 _(extreme) hard for us to put them into English properly. As far as Im concerned, my_ 48 _(propose) is that we should always have a notebook and a Chinese-English dictionary within easy reach. Whenever something beats us, we can first put it down in our notebook _49 _then consult our dictionary. We can also turn to our English teacher for help, if necessary. In short, I believe that it is _50_ great use to keep a diary in English for the development of our writing skills.第三部分 词汇及语法知识考查（共三节，满分30分）第1节 单词拼写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）51. g_ adv.贪婪地 56. u_ v.更新 52. a _ n. 赞许，赞成 57. d_ adv.故意地 53. s_ n.同情心 58.e_ n.花费54. e _ v.招待，款待 59. a _ n.吸引力55. o_ v.克服 60. a_ a.丰富的，充裕的第二节 单句填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）61.
