Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and have more respectable jobs. But in the executive(主管的) circle, 31 can become a disadvantage. While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is 32 (harm) to a woman. Handsome male executives are considered having more honesty than plainer men; effort and ability usually lead 33 their success. Attractive female executives are considered to have less honesty than unattractive 34 ；people do not connect their success with ability 35 with factors such as luck. All unattractive women executives are thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. However, interestingly, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes 36 (connect) more to personal relationships and less to ability.Attractive women are not thought to be able. This is true even in politics. Anne Bowman, a writer, 37 recently made a study, asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of women, in order of attractiveness. And then the students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in the order they would vote 38 them. The results showed that attractive males 39 (complete) defeated unattractive men, but the women 40 (rank) most attractive by the students unchangeably received the fewest votes. 阅读（共两节，满分30分）第一节：阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、和D项中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。ALike other student athletes, Ray Ray McElrathbey deals with schoolwork, practice and games. But after a long day of studying and working out on the football field, the Clemson University player cant relax with friends. Ray Ray has to make sure his 11-year-old brother, Fahmarr, gets a good dinner, does his homework and goes to bed.Since taking responsibility for Fahmarr this August, “Ive aged dramatically, ” said Ray Ray. “I cant be running around at all hours, making 19-year-old decisions.” Ray Ray has temporary custody (监护权) of Fahamrr. Their mother struggles with drug addiction, and they are not in touch with their dad. Ray Ray didnt want to see his brother go into foster care(收养), where both of them have spent time. The brothers now live together in an apartment near the campus in Clemson, South Carolina.Clemson Tigers fans arent the only people rooting for Ray Ray. Sports Illustrated, ESPN and ABC News have featured the story of the brothers. They have received praise and many offers of help, but Ray Ray attends the university and arrange their life on a scholarship. Under the rules, he cant accept money or gifts. Coaches family members cant even give Fahmarr a ride home from school.This changed a few weeks ago, when the National Collegiate Athletic Association allowed Clemson to set up a trust fund for Fahmarr. It will help provide for his basic needs, including food and clothing. However, the brothers can give each other something that all the money in the world cant buy. Ray Ray says he hopes to instill in Fahmarr qualities of “strength and intelligence”. He says having his brother around is “a great thing, knowing he will grow up right.”41What would be the best title for the passage?ARay Ray McElrathbey Works Hard at CollegeBRay Ray McElrathbey Loves His BrotherCParents Fail to Raise Their ChildrenDCollege Football Player Plays Parents Role42Ray Ray and his brother mainly live on_. Afoster care Bmoney or gifts from others Ca scholarship Dhis coaches families43The underlined phrase “rooting for ”in Paragraph 3 can be best explained as _. Asupporting Bpraising Cadmiring Dexciting44It can be inferred from the passage that _. ARay Ray must be the best player on his team Blike his brother, Ray Ray has had little care from their parents CClemson University will raise money for Ray Ray and his brother DRay Rays brother do well at school45Which of the following is True according to the passage? ARay Ray has few friends to relax with. BRay Ray knows where his father is. CRay Rays mother suffered from cancer and depends on drugs. DRay Ray is proud to support his brother.BLike all animal species, plant species must spread their offspring to suitable areas where they can grow and pass on their parents genes. Young animals generally spread by walking or flying. Because plants dont have that ability, they must somehow hitchhike(搭车). Some plant seeds scatter by blowing in the wind or floating on water. Many other plant species, though, trick an animal into carrying their seeds. How do they do this? They enclose the seeds within a tasty fruit and advertise the fruits ripeness by its colour or smell. The hungry animal collects and swallows the fruit, walks or flies off, and later spits out the seeds somewhere far from its parent tree. Seeds can thereby be carried for thousands of miles. It may surprise you to learn that plant seeds can resist digestion. In fact, some seeds actually require passage through an animals body before they can grow.Wild strawberries offer a good example of hitchhiking tactics. When strawberry seeds are still young and not yet ready to be planted, the surrounding fruit is green, sour and hard. When the seeds finally mature, the berries turn red, sweet, and tender. The change in the berries colour serves as a signal to birds which then eat the strawberries, fly off, and eventually spit out the seeds.Naturally, strawberry plants didnt set out with a conscious intention of attracting birds only when their seeds were ready to be dispersed. Nor did birds set out with the intent of planting strawberries. Rather, strawberry plants evolved through natural selection. The sweeter and redder the final strawberry, the more birds spread its ripe seeds; the greener and more sour the young strawberry, the fewer birds destroyed the seeds by eating berries before the seeds were ready.46What does the underlined word “dispersed” in the third paragraph mean? Aspread Beaten Cborn Dplanted47For plants, which of the following is NOT a way of spreading their offspring to suitable areas? AHitchhiking. BBlowing in the wind. CFloating on water. DTracking an animal.48Which strategy does the example of wild strawberries describe? AThe conscious intent of attracting birds. BSpreading by walking. CSpreading by flying. DThe strategy of taking a lift.49Why does the author describe how strawberry seeds are spread? ATo show plants are good at adapting to the environment. . BTo show strawberrys special way. CTo show the plant has different ways of spreading seeds. DTo show the mystery of plant.50Whats the passage mainly about? AHow animals disperse offspring. BHow plants disperse their offspring. CPlant evolution. DPlants hitchhiking on animals.CIt has been more than twenty years since pioneering British computer programmer, Sir Tim Berners Lee, created the World Wide Web. But could he have ever imagined how much the web would change our lives? And would he approve of how some British students are taking advantage of his invention?Universities and exam boards around the UK are becoming increasingly concerned with the rising number of cases of plagiarism, many of which are facilitated (助长) by the Internet access.In the UK most school and university students complete coursework throughout the academic year which contributes toward their final mark. In many cases coursework makes up the main part of the qualification. Since coursework is completed in the students own time it cannot be monitored by teachers in the same way as an exam.Derec Stockley, director of examinations in the UK, explains, “Plagiarism affects coursework more than anything else, and in the cases that come to our attention, more and more are linked to the Internet.”At a university level recent reports suggest that plagiarism has evolved from separate cases of individual cheating to systematic and even commercial operation. Students can now pay for bespoke essays to be written for them by experts.It is estimated that the market in online plagiarism is now worth 200 million pounds a year. Every month more and more websites offering to write students essays for them appear on the Internet.Barclay Littlewood, owner of Degree Essays UK employs 3,500 specialist writers and charges between 120 pounds and 4,000 pounds per essay. However, Mr. Littlewood refutes the accusation that he is helping students to cheat.51What dose the underlined word “plagiarism” in Paragrha 2 mean in the passage? Acheating Bproblems of the Internet Clearning pressure Dcoursework52Which of the following statements is mentioned by the author? AWith the help of online plagiarism, students can write more creative coursework. BThere will be no problem if online plagiarism is a systematic and commercial operation. CThe Internet seems to have contributed much to the problem of online plagiarism. DTeachers should lay more emphasis on exams than coursework.53It can be inferred from the text that the author seems to _. Ablame Sir Tim Berners Lee for having created the World Wide Web Bworry about the quality of students coursework influenced by the World Wide Web Cbe in favour of Littlewoods defence against the accusation of him Dhave studied the problem of online plagiarism for nearly 20 years54Who should be blamed for online plagiarism? ABarclay Littlewood. BSir Tim Berners Lee. CDerec Stockley. DNobody.55The paragraph following the passage will most probably be about_. Athe authors opinions of Mr. Littlewood Bdifferent peoples opinions on plagiarism Chow students use the website of Mr. Littlewood DMr. Littlewoods defence against those who accused him of his website第二节 信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）请阅读下列应用文和相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。首先请阅读下列商品信息：AWEBKINZLionPrice: $6.99Discover a virtual world with Webkinz pets.
