The Tall Persons Club Great Britain(TPCGB), which was formed six months ago to campaign for the needs of the tall, has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants. Beds that are too small, shower heads that are too low, and restaurant tables with hardly any leg-room ,all make life difficult for those of above average height , it says. But it is not just the extra-tall whose needs are not being met. The average height of the population has been increasing yet the standard size of beds, doorways, and chairs has remained unchanged. “The bedding industry says a bed should be six inches larger than the person using it , so even a king-size bed at 66(6feet and 6 inches) is falling short for 25of men, while the standard 63 bed caters for less than half of the male population, said TPCGB president Phil Heinricy ,Seven-foot beds would work fine. Similarly , restaurant tables can cause no end of problems . Small tables, which mean the long-legged have to sit a foot or so away from them, are enough to make tall customers go elsewhere. Some have already taken note, however, At Queens Moat Houses Caledonian Hotel in Edinburgh66 beds are now put in as standard after requests for longer beds from taller visitors, particularly Americans.21 . What is the purpose of the TPCGB campaign? A To provide better services B To rebuild hotels and restaurants C To draw public attention to the needs of the tall D To attract more people to bee its members22 . Which of the following might be a bed of proper length according to Phil Heirtricy? A .72 B. 7 C. 66 D .6323What may happen to restaurants with small tables? A .They may lose some customers B. They may start businesses elsewhere C .They have to find easy chairs to match the tables D .They have to provide enough space for the longlegged24. What change has already been made in a hotel in Edinburgh? A .Tall people pay more for larger beds B. 66 beds have taken the place of 63beds C. Special rooms are kept for Americans D. Guest rooms are standardizedBGrown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins Twinkle, twinkle, little star or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials increase the length of time we will Remember it. In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as Twinkle, twinkle, little star and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn. The multiplication tables(乘法口诀表)are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood. The law of overleatning explains why cramming(突击学习)for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for ones future development.25. What is the main idea of Paragraph 1A. People remember well what they learned in childhood.B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups.C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words.D. Stories for children are easy to remember.26. The author explains the law of overlearning by A. presenting research findings B. setting down general rules C. making a parison D. using examples27. According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables isA. a result of overlearning B. a special case of cramming C. a skill to deal with math problems D. a basic step towards advanced studies28.What is the authors opinion on cramming?A. It leads to failure in college exams. B. Its helpful only in a limited way.C. Its possible to result in poor memory. DItincreasesstudentslearninginterest.CGiven that many peoples moods are regulated by the chemical action of chocolate, it was probably only a matter of time before somebody made the chocolate shop similar to a drugstore of Chinese medicine. Looking like a setting from the film Charlie&the Chocolate Factory, Singapores Chocolate Research Facility (CRF) has over 100 varieties of chocolates. its founder is Chris Lee who grew up at his parents er store with one hand almost always in the jar of sweets.If the CRF seems to be a smart idea, thats because Lee is not merely a seasoned salesperson but also head of a marketing department that has business relations with big names such as Levis and Sony. That idea surely results in the imagination at work when it es to making different flavored(味道)chocolates.The CRFs produce is green made within the country and divided into 10 lines, with the Alcohol Series being the most popular. The Exotic Series一with Sichuan pepper, red bean (豆). Cheese and other flavors一also does well and is fun to taste. And for chocolate snobs，who think that they have a better knowledge of chocolate than others, the Connoisseur Series uses cocoa beans from Togo, Cuba, Venezuela , and Ghana, among others.29. Why is Chris Lee able to develop his idea of the CRF?A. He knows the importance of research. B. He learns form shops of similar types.C. He has the support of many big names D. He has a lot of marketing experience.30. Which line of the CRF produce sells best?A. The Connoisseur Series. B. The Exotic Series.C. The Alcohol Series. D. The Sichuan Series.31. The words chocolate snobs in Paragraph 3 probably refer to people who A. are particular about chocolate B. know little about cocoa beansC. look down upon others D. like to try new flavorsWhy should mankind explore space? Why should money, time and effort be spent exploring and researching something with so few apparent benefits? Why should resources be spent on space rather than on conditions and people on Earth? These are questions that, understandably, are very often asked.Perhaps the best answer lies in our genetic makeup as human beings. What drove our ancestors to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all possible areas and environments? The wider the spread of a species, the better its chance of survival. Perhaps the best reason for exploring space is this genetic tendency to expand wherever possible.Nearly every successful civilization has explored, because by doing so, any dangers in surrounding areas can be identified and prepared for. Without knowledge, we may be pletely destroyed by the danger. With knowledge, we can lessen its effects. Exploration also allows minerals and other potential resources to be found. Even if we have no immediate need of them, they will perhaps be useful later. Resources may be more than physical possessions. Knowledge or techniques have been acquired through exploration. The techniques may have medical applications which can improve the length or quality of our lives. We have already benefited from other spinoffs including improvements in earthquake prediction, in satellites for weather forecasting and in munications systems. Even nonstick pans and mirrored sunglasses are byproducts(副产品) of technological developments in the space industry!While many resources are spent on what seems a small return, the exploration of space allows creative, brave and intelligent members of our species to focus on what may serve to save us. While space may hold many wonders and explanations of how the universe was formed or how it works, it also holds dangers. The danger exists, but knowledge can help human beings to survive. Without the ability to reach out across space, the chance to save ourselves might not exist.While Earth is the only planet known to support life, surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us to live on other planets. It is true that the lifestyle would be different, but human life and cultures have adapted in the past and surely could in the future.32. Why does the author mention the questions?A. To express his doubts.B. To pare different ideas.C. To introduce points for discussion.D. To describe the conditions on Earth.33. What is the reason for exploring space based on?A. Humans are natureborn to do so. B. Humans have the tendency to fight.C. Humans may find new sources of food. D. Humans dont like to stay in the same place.34. The underlined word “spinoffs” in Paragraph 4 probably refers to _.A. survival chances B. potential resourcesC. unexpected benefitsD. physical possessions35. Which of the statements can best sum up the passage?A. Space exploration has created many wonders.B. Space exploration provides the best value for money.C. Space exploration can benefit science and technology.D. Space exploration may help us avoid potential problems on Earth.第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分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。选项中有两项为多余选项。It can be difficult to meet new people and make friends，especially when you move to a new city or find yourself out of your fort zoneHow will you deal with the situation? 36 There are several ways that you can meet people that you might not have considered in the past 37You probably have several acquaintances that you see on a daily basis or a weekly basisIf you get along well with certain people，you can see if this acquaintance would like to go out and do something socially with youIf you have mon interests，you might suggest that the two of you do something together that involves your interest Make an effort to accept invitationsSometimes people that you know may be having a barbecue or other types of social gatheringTry to ensure that you are able to attend and then show up at the appointed time 38If you meet people that you click with，you can make a plan to see them again in the future or you can invite your friends to your own event and ask them to extend the invitation to the friends that were at their gathering tooGo out，even when you dont feel like itIt turns out that when people invite someone to join them for dinner or a movie or something else，they really want to hang out with you 3940 But once you have used the same methods a few times you will know exactly what works and what does notDont give up，everyone is different and it just takes time to get to know peopleAExpand on current relationshipsBTrying to make new friends can be annoying at firstCDo you work with people that you get along well with?DBut dont call them several times a day or even several times per weekEBe more social and youll make your life more exciting and fulfilledFIf you tend to say “no” often，people will eventually stop asking you to go with themGThese types of gatherings often lead to meeting different people who are friends of friends第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节：完形填空（共20个小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 The job of raising children is a tough one.

From the time I was about four until I was about six, I destroyed each of my toy. I was happy when the toys worked, but when things did wrong, I got angry and broke it. For a while parents bought me new toys. But before long they began to see which was happening. When I tear apart my fifth birthday toy train, my father said, Thats it. No more toys to you. My punishment lasted a year. Meanwhile, I found out that with more patience I must make my toys to last.

I fully understand why we are not fortable about it, but theres no need to feel too sad. Our parents are checking our bags or diaries to make sure were not getting into any trouble.

My suggestion is: Tell them we want them to trust us as much as wed like to trust them. If you dont think you can talk to them, write them a letter and leave it lying aroundthey are bound to read it.Thank you!
