从每题所给的 A B C D 四个选 项中 选出最佳选项 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑 A Dear Koko I ve learned about you from my amazing teacher I think it s fun that you can communicate with us humans by using the sign language I ve spent a lot of time watching you in different videos and love you from the bottom of my heart It s heartbreaking to learn about all of the cruel things done to gorillas 大猩猩 In Africa for example the killers use guns to kill your fellows for meat They don t understand the influence their actions are having on gorillas Another thing is the loss of gorillas natural home which is caused by the improved infrastructure such as building roads and airports When we cut down trees you become homeless We take away your shelter and sources of food leaving you with very little chance of survival Some of my classmates are writing to the relevant departments about these serious problems Hopefully these letters will make a difference during your lifetime Over the past three months my class has been researching on gorillas and I ve learned so many things For example I ve learned that you have a lot of feelings similar to mine and you are always so careful with everything you do I think that you are really worth saving We ve come up with many ideas to help you and your fellows One of the best ideas is to communicate with the President of the World Bank and have him give more financial support to the organizations for gorillas Another idea is to make public laws on the killers I also think we need to keep educating people about gorillas I love writing to you and hope you can understand how important you ve become to our class Would it be too much to ask for a return letter Mike 36 According to the passage Koko is probably A a killer of gorillas B a member of the gorilla family C an expert on gorillas D a governor in charge of gorillas 37 What is mainly talked about in the second paragraph A The problems gorillas face at present B The danger gorillas cause for humans C The unique characteristic gorillas have D The natural environment gorillas live in 38 The author suggests that A gorillas should be protected in nature reserves B killers for gorillas should be legally responsible C organizations should be set up to protect gorillas D people should make donations to gorilla protection B The Handshake I don t remember the exact date I met Marty for the first time Like a lot of people who want to get through a checkout line I found my thoughts on speed nothing more The line I was standing in wasn t moving as quickly as I wanted and I glanced toward the cashier who was receiving money from customers He was an old man in his sixties I thought well it probably took him a little longer to get the jobs done For the next few minutes I watched him He greeted every customer before he began scanning the 4 goods they were purchasing Sure his words were the usual How s it going But he did something different he actually listened to people Then he would respond to what they had said and talk with them briefly I thought it was strange but I guessed I had grown accustomed to people asking me how I was doing simply out of a conversation without thinking Usually after a while you don t give any thought to the question and just say something back quietly This old cashier seemed sincere about wanting to know how people were feeling Meanwhile the high tech cash register rang up their purchases and he announced what they owed When customers handed money to him he pushed the appropriate keys the cash drawer popped open and he counted out their change Then magic happened He placed the change in his left hand walked around the counter to the customers and extended his right hand in an act of friendship As their hands met the old cashier looked the customers in the eyes I want to thank you for shopping here today he told them You have a great day Bye bye The looks on the faces of the customers were priceless Now it was my turn I glanced down at the name tag on his red waistcoat the kind experienced Wal Mart cashier wore It read Marty Marty told me how much I owed and I handed him some money The next thing I knew he was standing beside me offering his right hand and holding my change in his left hand His kind eyes locked onto mine Smiling and with a firm handshake 39 While the author stood in the checkout line she felt A comfortable B enthusiastic C impatient D embarrassed 40 In the opinion of the author people tended to A remain calm while having a talk B talk about unimportant topics C develop a mindless conversation D face communication problems 41 The author thought Marty special because A he spent as much time as possible serving customers B he was patient with all the questions from customers C he showed particular interest in customers personal life D he expressed his sincerity while giving back the change 42 What can we infer from the passage A Marty was a talkative man B Marty cared a lot about what he did C The author failed to get along well with others D The author was dissatisfied with such a waste of time C No student of a foreign language needs to be told that grammar is complex By changing the order of the words and by adding a range of auxiliary verbs 助动词 and suffixes 后缀 we can turn a statement into a question state whether an action has taken place or is soon to take place and perform many other word tricks to convey different meanings However the question which many language experts can t understand and explain is who created grammar Some recent languages evolved due to the Atlantic slave trade Since the slaves didn t know each other s languages they developed a make shift language called a pidgin Pidgins are strings of words copied from the language of the landowners They have little in the way of grammar and speakers need to 5 use too many words to make their meaning understood Interestingly however all it takes for a pidgin to become a complex language is for a group of children to be exposed to it at the time when they learn their mother tongue Slave children didn t simply copy the strings of words used by their elders They adapted their words to create an expressive language In this way complex grammar systems which come from pidgins were invented Further evidence can be seen in studying sign languages for the deaf Sign languages are not simply a group of gestures they use the same grammatical machinery that is found in spoken languages The creation of one such language was documented quite recently in Nicaragua Previously although deaf children were taught speech and lip reading in the classrooms in the playgrounds they began to invent their own sign system using the gestures they used at home It was basically a pidgin and there was no consistent grammar However a new system was born when children who joined the school later developed a quite different sign language It was based on the signs of the older children but it was shorter and easier to understand and it had a large range of special use of grammar to clarify the meaning What s more they all used the signs in the same way So the original pidgin was greatly improved Most experts believe that many of the languages were pidgins at first They were initially used in different groups of people without standardization and gradually evolved into a widely accepted system The English past tense ed ending may have evolved from the verb do It ended may once have been It end did It seems that children have grammatical machinery in their brains Their minds can serve to create logical and complex structures even when there is no grammar present for them to copy 43 What can be inferred about the slaves pidgin language A It was difficult to understand B It came from different languages C It was created by the landowners D It contained highly complex grammar 44 What is the characteristic of the new Nicaraguan sign language A No consistent signs were used for communication B Most of the gestures were made for everyday activities C The hand movements were smoother and more attractive D The meaning was clearer than the previous sign language 45 Which idea does the author present in the last paragraph A English grammar of past tense system is inaccurate B Children say English past tense differently from adults C The thought that English was once a pidgin is acceptable D Experts have proven that English was created by children 46 What is the best title for the passage A The Creators of Grammar B The History of Languages C Why Pidgins Came into Being D How Grammar Systems Are Used D A Competitive Sport Over the years cheerleading has taken two primary forms game time cheerleading and competitive cheerleading Game time cheerleaders main goal is to entertain the crowd and lead them with team cheers which should not be considered a sport However competitive cheerleading is more than a form of entertainment It is really a competitive sport Competitive cheerleading includes lots of physical activity The majority of the teams require a certain level of tumbling 翻腾运动 ability It s a very common thing for Cheerleading 6 gymnasts so it s easy for them to go into competitive cheerleading Usually these cheerleaders integrate lots of their gymnastics experience including their jumps tumbling and overall energy They also perform lifts and throws This is where the fliers are thrown in the air held by bases in different positions that require strength and working with other teammates Competitive cheerleading is also an activity that is governed by rules under which a winner can be declared It is awarded points for technique creativity and sharpness Usually the more difficult the action is the better the score is That s why cheerleaders are trying to experience great difficulty in their performance Besides there is also a strict rule of time The whole performance has to be completed in less than three minutes and fifteen seconds during which the cheerleaders are required to stay within a certain area Any performance beyond the limit of time is invalid Another reason for the fact that competitive cheerleading is one of the hardest sports is that it has more reported injuries According to some research competitive cheerleading is the number one cause of serious sports injuries to women Emergency room visits for it are five times the number than for any other sport partially because cheerleaders don t use protective equipment Smiling cheerleaders are thrown into the air and move down into the arms of the teammates which may easily cause injuries Generally these injuries affect all areas of the body including wrists shoulders ankles head and neck There can be no doubt that competitive cheerleading is a sport with professional skills Hopefully it will appear in the Olympics since cheerleaders are just as athletic and physically fit as those involved in the more accepted sports It should be noted that it is a team sport and even the smallest mistake made by one teammate can bring the score of the entire team down So without working together to achieve the goal first place is out of reach 47 What is the main purpose of competitive cheerleading A To compare skills of participants B To make the audience feel amused C To attract more people to watch events D To cheer up the competitors on the court 48 The underlined word integrate in Paragraph 2 probably means A examine B combine C identify D replace 49 We can learn from the passage that competitive cheerleading A lacks necessary guidelines to follow B enjoys greater popularity than other sports C requires more designed actions than gymnastics D has a relatively high rate of damage to the body 50 Which of the following shows the structure of the passage A B C D I Introduction P Point Sp Sub point 次要点 C Conclusion 7 第二节 共 5 小题 每小题 2 分 共 10 分 根据短文内容 从短文后的七个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 Rich and Famous Twenty years ago the most common ambition of American children was to be a teacher followed by working in banking and finance and then medicine But today s situation is quite different 51 Instead they most commonly say they want to be a sports star a pop star or an actor in other words they hope to become a celebrity 名人 According to experts young people desire these jobs largely because of the wealth and the fame 52 Let s take athletes and singers as an example Their careers are short lived Many athletes best time only lasts a few years and singers can have a very limited career The field that was once the focus of their lives becomes something they have little or no involvement in As a result they ll have a feeling of worthlessness and a lack of control 53 The truth is quite simple they have been so far removed from it for so long In spite of these disadvantages there is greater ambition than ever among young people to achieve that status They are not satisfied just making a living they want to be rich and famous Globally more and more TV shows provide talent competitions where winners can achieve their goals in just a few weeks or months 54 They unrealistically believe that this lifestyle is easily obtained and leads to great satisfaction While many people argue that there is nothing wrong with having such ambitions others feel that this trend will finally lead to dissatisfaction as more and more people are unable to reach their goals 55 That means they ignore the simple fact that great effort is needed before success As a result many people won t realize their childhood dreams which could have a negative effect on their happiness A The younger generation don t favor these professions any more B In many ways this has been brought about by the celebrity culture C Unfortunately they do not always have a positive effect on people s life D Besides it can be difficult for them to adapt back to a normal everyday life E People no longer have a sense of satisfaction once their goals have been achieved F This quick way of gaining wealth and fame creates a celebrity culture among people G The reason is that they don t realize it takes talent and hard work to be rich and famous 第三部分 书面表达 共两节
