Recently a test was given in the United States. Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83. During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results showed that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention in class. Contrary to what many people believe, if you dont eat breakfast, you will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining some weight instead of losing some. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.41. During the test, those who were tested were given _. A. no breakfast at all B. a very rich breakfast C. little food for breakfast D. different breakfasts or none42. The results of the test showed that _. A. breakfast has a great effect on work and study B. breakfast has little to do with a persons work C. a person will work better if he has a simple breakfast D. those working with brains should have a lot for breakfast 43. The passage infers that many people believe that if you dont eat breakfast, you will _. A. lose weight B. not lose or gain weight C. be healthier D. gain a lot of weight44. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. Poor breakfasts affect those who work with their brains. B. Having no breakfast may cause one to get fatter. C. Having a big lunch and supper is of great value in weight-losing. D. Eating less for lunch and supper may help to lose weight.B Life is difficult. It is great truth because once we truly understand and accept it, then life is no longer difficult. Most do not fully see this truth. Instead, they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that difficulties represent (代表) a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or upon their families, their class, or even their nation. What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause us sadness, loneliness or regret or anger and fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy. Yet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the serious tests that tell us success from failure. When we desire to encourage the growth of human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, “Those things that hurt instruct.” It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems.45. From the passage, it can be inferred that_. A. everybody has problems B. we become stronger by meeting and solving the problems of life C. life is difficult because our problems bring us pain D. people like to complain about their problems46. The writer probably used just one short sentence in the first paragraph to _. A. save space B. persuade readers C. makes readers laugh D. get readers attention47. The main idea of Paragraph 3 is that _. A. most people feel life is easy B. the writer feels life is easy C. the writer likes to complain about his problems D. most people complain about how hard their lives are48. According to the passage, we give schoolchildren difficult problems to solve in order to _. A. encourage them to learn B. teach them to fear the pain of solving the problem C. helps them learn to deal with pain D. teach them how to solve problemsCIn old times, man considered lightning to be one of the greatest mysteries of nature. In fact, a single flash of lightning 1.6 km long has enough electricity to light one million lamps. The American scientist, Benjamin Franklin, was the first to suggest that lightning is in fact electricity formed between the Earth and clouds high above. It happened in 1752. In the same year, he also built the first lightning rod to protect buildings from being struck by lightning. Modern science has discovered that lightning is very long and powerful. A lightning between a cloud and the Earth may be as long as 13 km, and travels at a speed of 30 million meters per second. Scientists have the opinion that there are about 2 billion flashes of lightning per year. In the United States alone, it kills almost one person per day. The safest place to be in during an electrical storm is a closed car. Outside, one should go close to low ground for cover and not stop under a tree. Also one should stay out of water and away from metal fences. Inside a house, people should keep away from open doorways and windows and not touch wires or metal things.49. From the passage, we know that lightning is _. A. one of the great mysterious of nature B. electricity high above the Earth C. a kind of light D. the sound from the clouds50. In the USA, _. A. every person can see lightning every day B. at least one person is killed by lightning every day C. there are about 6 million flashes of lightning per year D. about one person per day dies from lightning51. During a lightning storm, it would be best if you _. A. stand under a tree B. go outside C. stay in a closed car D. stop near windows52. A lightning rod can _. A. prevent accidents caused by lightning B. stop lightning C. protect building from being washed away D. delay the coming of lightning D Looking back on my childhood, I get to believe that naturalists are born and not made. Although we were all brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon threw away their pressed flowers and insects. Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic. Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the unclear memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds and, above all, the insects. I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world, and my enthusiasm(热情) has led me into varied investigations(调查). I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil while reading about other peoples observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you wonder you see the answer to the riddle(迷), because it all seems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honour with the title of scientific research. But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist; one of the outstanding qualities required is self-discipline, a quality I lack. A scientist requires not only self-discipline but hard training, determination and a goal. A scientist, up to a point, can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds.53. The first paragraph tells us that the author _. A. was born to a naturalists family B. lost his hearing when he was a child C. didnt like his brothers and sisters D. was interested in flowers and insects54. The author cant remember his relatives clearly because _. A. he didnt live long with them B. he was fully busy observing nature C. the family was too large to remember D. he was too young when he lived with them55. It can be inferred from the passage that the author was _ A. a naturalist but not a scientist B. more a good observer than a listener C. no more than a born naturalist D. a scientist as well as a naturalist56. The author says hes a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks he _. A. lacks some of the qualities required of a scientist B. he couldnt do mental arithmetic C. he was brought up in a family of farmers D. he was not knowledgeable enough E When I opened my E-mail the other day, a pretty woman named Rachel appeared on my computer screen. She greeted me by name and started talking with great enthusiasm. Every now and then she stopped to smile at me or blow a kiss. She was reading to me an E-mail from my brother, and a lot of it was about his getting the phone company to give him a high speed Internet connection. It was pretty cool. Rachel was there thanks to a new technology called Facemail, Facemail lets you send an E-mail that gets ready to the receiver by an attractive male or female form or by a clown. (小丑). The software, which is free, can be downloaded at www.facemail. com. Facemail faces are lifelike, and they simulate(模拟) emotions based on emotions that you put in your text. For example, type in-X, and Rachel blows a kiss. The company that develops the Facemail is sure there are broad business uses. The reason E-business is not popular, the company says, is that buying over the Internet lacks the human touch, but what if you went to the Nike website and Michael Jordan greeted you by name, waited on you and personally closed the sale? And it is talking with Whirlpool(惠普公司) about using the technology in a computer screen on a fridge. Then if Mom cant be home when the kids get back from school, she can leave a note with a voice and image telling them what there is to eat. Facemail could get hot fast. Personally, Im a fan. But Facemail should be used with care. The clown looks lively and funny at first. But if you select the clown, put a few rude words in an E-mail and add some angry emotions, youve got a Psycho mail(疯人型电子邮件).57. The pretty woman that appears on the writers computer screen was _. A. a woman working on the Internet B. his brothers girlfriend C. not a real person D. the picture of his pen-friend58. The main advantage of Facemail is that _. A. you can hire a beautiful woman to read the E-mail to you B. you can see the representation of the person who sends you the E-mail C. you can send an E-mail free of charge D. E-mail can be attractive in a more lovely way59. The writer mentioned the Nike website and Michael Jordan to show that _. A. famous people like Michael Jordan also like to use Facemail B. Facemail can make shopping on the Internet more interesting C. Nike website will increase its sales by Jordan D. Michael Jordan will serve you himself on Nike website60. What is the writers attitude towards Facemail? A. He thinks it needs further improvement. B. He thinks it cool and funny C. He thinks it a danger to the Internet. D. He thinks people should be careful with Facemail.根据对话内容.从从对话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.(每题1分,请把答案涂到答题卡的71-75处)( Telephoning) American Airlines.
