9.It was once unheard-of to be a businessman in China.Nowadays,though,it's quite common to become your own boss.Let's say you have an idea.Maybe you want to open an English school or sell Japanese comics.First,you need a business plan.It sets out what you'll sell and how much everything will cost.Most businesses that fail didn't have this.If you need to borrow money at the start,banks will ask for a detailed plan.
The best starting place for a business plan is the 4Ps:product,place,price and promotion.All these must be strong to be successful.
□Product
Your product must have something unique.What makes it special compared to other similar products?If you want to start a noodle shop that has nothing new,don't expect people to show much interest.You can research your product.For food,let people try it for free.For toys,let a few children play with them to see if they like them.
□Place
There's no point having a product that people want to buy if your shop is in an empty mall.Think about which type of person is going to buy what you sell.Where do they usually go shopping?When looking at possible places,spend the day there.See how many people pass by.Also,are there other shops nearby selling similar products?If so,how can you be better than them?
□Price
Work out how much it costs to make or provide your product.As a general rule,your price will be double the cost.After all,you're also paying for rent,staff and you need to eat too!
□Promotion
How can you attract people to your shop?Advertising in newspapers and on TV is expensive.Perhaps you can get free advertising by getting a newspaper to write about your business.

26.What's the best title for the passage?C
A.How to start a business.
B.Starting a business soon.
C.Starting your own business.
D.Preparations for starting a business.

A.a(chǎn) business plan     B.a(chǎn) shop    C.money       D.successful businessmen
28.If you want to start a noodle shop,you shouldB.
A.expect people to show much interest
B.research your noodles
C.let people try it at a low price
D.let children have a try
29.What does"If so"in Paragraph 4refer to?A
A.There are shops selling the goods like yours.
B.Many people pass by.
C.You should think about which type of person is going to buy what you sell.
D.You should spend the day on possible places.
30.You are selling toys to children.It costs 5yuan to make each one.How much should you charge the children for each toy?C
A.15yuan.   B.5yuan.   C.10yuan.  D.50yuan.

19.Preparations are underway around the world for Chinese New Year (Feb 19)and celebrations in China will be mirrored across the planet wherever the Chinese Diaspora (華僑) calls home.Here are some Chinatowns for those outside of China wishing to mark the day.
London
Although it may not be as large or as long-built as others,having only become a center for the Chinese community during the 1950s,London's Chinatown is a perfectly formed little firework that knows how to see in the year with a bang.Decorated with red lanterns (燈籠),previous years have seen shows with acrobatics (雜技),martial arts (武術(shù)),dance and opera nearby.
San Francisco
San Francisco's Chinatown is perhaps the most famous in the United States.The city was the main entry-point for Chinese who had crossed the Pacific to the USA during the early 19th century.Between the Grant Avenue and the Stockton Street,this historic area is a local treasure,attracting more visitors per year than the Golden Gate Bridge.
Bangkok
With a more than 100-year-old history,the Thai capital's Chinatown contains complex streets offering all kinds of tasty treats,clothes,toys and antiques.Sunday market days are such a good time to get the full atmosphere of the neighborhood.The area is also known for its gold dealers,whose shops line the road.
Mauritius
Found in Port Louis,this Mauritian Chinatown shows the island nation's rich multicultural diversity.Established in the early years of the 20th century by settlers from China,its tiny shops and restaurants serve locals and visitors.During the Chinese Spring Festival,the most exciting sight is the Dragon Dances on Rue Royale when Chinese musicians and dancers perform the traditional Lion dances through the streets.

29.According to the text,which of the following has the longest history?D
A.London's Chinatown.
B.Bangkok's Chinatown.
C.Mauritius's Chinatown.
D.San Francisco's Chinatown.
30.What's special about Bangkok's Chinatown?B
A.It is crowded with Chinese restaurants.
B.It is well-known for its gold business.
C.It was the major entrance for the Chinese.
D.It is where you can enjoy fireworks.

20.A neighbourhood barbershop(理發(fā)店) might seem to some Americans like a thing of past.Today men often get their hair cut at the same salons as women.But the traditional barbershop still holds a special place in black culture.A barbershop is a place of trust where men can talk about things they might not want women to hear.This is why black-owned barbershops increasingly offer more than just a haircut.
Men also receive health education and testing that could save their life.A new study has examined the barbershop health-care model.The study involved about 1,300customers at 17black barbershops.Researchers had the barbers at eight of the shops continue to just give haircuts.The other barbers learned how to measure blood pressure and offered it with every haircut.If a customer had high blood pressure,the barber would intervene(干涉).The customer would be urged to see a doctor.Customers who went to a doctor would get their next haircut free of charge.The study lasted ten months.All the men had their blood pressure taken at the start.
The study found that blood pressure rates decreased at the shops where the barbers intervened and also at those where they did not.But the difference was in the amount,20% of the men who were urged to see a doctor got their blood pressure down to a healthy level.So did only 11% of the men who just got haircuts.Dr.Ronald Victor,the study leader,says barbers historically were members of the medical profession.So he thinks it makes a lot of sense for today's barbers to act as"health care extenders"by sharpening their skills.

56.What can customers do in a traditional black-owned barbershop?C
A.Communicate with others about black culture.
B.Get their hair cut in a special manner.
C.Share topics without being overheard by women.
D.Learn how to enjoy good health and long life.
57.How do barbers encourage patients to see their doctors?A
A.By offering free service next time.
B.By recommending qualified doctors to them.
C.By providing financial help for them.
D.By telling them the seriousness of their problems.
58.What did the study find?B
A.Most customers got their blood pressure down.
B.Barbers'intervention did help those customers.
C.Most customers didn't follow barbers'advice.
D.Barbers were qualified to work as doctors.
59.What does Dr.Victor most probably agree with?D
A.Barbers may achieve a degree in medicine.
B.Barbers can become medical workers.
C.Barbers may change their professions to doctors.
D.Barbers may contribute to the health of people.

4.Electronic devices are changing the way people listen to music.
Global Positioning Systems(GPS) are now a part of everyday driving in many countries.These satellite-based systems provide turn-by-turn directions to help people get to where they want to go.But,they can also cause a lot of problems,send you to the wrong place or leave you completely lost.Many times,the driver is to blame.Sometimes a GPS error is responsible.Most often,says Barry Brown,it is a combination of the two.
We spoke to Mr.Brown by Skype (網(wǎng)絡(luò)電話軟件).He told us about an incident involving a friend who had flown to an airport in the eastern United States.There he borrowed a GPS-equipped car to use during his stay.BARRY BROWN:"And they just plugged in an address and then set off to their destination.And,then it wasn't until they were driving for thirty minutes that they realized they actually put in a destination back on the West Coast where they lived.They actually put their home address in.So again,the GPS is kind of'garbage in garbage out'."
Mr Brown says this is a common human error.But,he says,what makes the problem worse has to do with some of the shortcomings,or failures,of GPS equipment.BARRY BROWN:"One problem with a lot of the GPS units is that they have a very small screen and they just tell you the next turn.Because they just give you the next turn,sometimes that means that it is not really giving you the overview that you would need to know that it's going to the wrong place."
Barry Brown formerly served as a professor with the University of California,San Diego.While there,he worked on a project with Eric Laurier from the University of Edinburgh.The two men studied the effects of GPS devices on driving by placing cameras in people's cars.They wrote a paper based on their research.It is called"The Normal,Natural Troubles of Driving with GPS."
It lists several areas where GPS systems can cause confusion for drivers.These include maps that are outdated,incorrect or difficult to understand.They also include timing issues(時(shí)機(jī)問(wèn)題) related to when GPS commands are given.
Barry Brown says,"To make GPS systems better we need a better understanding of how drivers,passengers and GPS systems work together."
66.In paragraph 2,Mr.Brown mentioned his friend in the conversation toD.
A.build up his own reputation                  
B.laugh at his stupid friend
C.prove the GPS system is only garbage         
D.describe an example of human error
67.What is the disadvantage of small screens in GPS equipment according to the text?A
A.They just provide the next turn
B.They are harmful to eyes.
C.They make drivers tired easily
D.They often break down suddenly.
68.Which of the following statements would Barry Brown most likely agree with?D
A.GPS units are to blame for most GPS service failures.
B.We should introduce higher standards for the driving license.
C.Cameras are urgently needed to help improve GPS systems.
D.Drivers,GPS systems and passengers should unite to improve GPS systems.
69.What is Mr.Brown's attitude towards GPS?C
A.Unconcerned.B.Prejudiced.C.Objective.D.Critical.
70.What would be the best title for the text?A
A.Driving with GPS can be difficult.
B.Driving confusions can be caused by small screens.
C.Driving without GPS should be much more convenient.
D.GPS equipment in driving to be deserted or improved.

14.Every human being has a unique(唯一的,獨(dú)特的) arrangement of the skin on his fingers and this arrangement is unchangeable.Scientists and experts have proved the uniqueness of finger-prints and discovered that no exactly similar pattern is passed on from parents to children,though nobody knows why this is the case.
 The ridge structure on a person's fingers does not change with growth and is not affected by surface injuries.Burns,cuts and other damage to the outer part of the skin will be replaced in time by new one,which bears a reproduction of the original(最粗的,原始的) pattern.It is only when the inner skin is injured that the arrangement will be destroyed.Some criminals make use of this fact to remove their own finger-prints but this is a dangerous and rare step to take.
 Finger-prints can be made very easily with printer's ink.They can by recorded easily.With special methods,identification(辨認(rèn),鑒定) can be achieved successfully within a short time.Because of the simplicity and economy of this system,finger-prints have often been used as a method of solving criminal case.A suspected man may deny a charge but this may be in vain.His finger-prints can prove who he is even if his appearance has been changed by age or accident.
 When a suspect leaves finger-prints behind at the scene of a crime,they are difficult to detect with the naked eye.Special techniques are used to"develop"them.Some of the marks found are incomplete but identification is possible if a print of a quarter of an inch square can be obtained.
55.Scientists and experts have proved that the pattern of a human being's finger skinD.
A.is similar to his mother's                          
B.is valuable to himself only
C.is like that of others with the same type of blood

A.be changed partly                                 
B.be replaced by a different one
C.be the same when the wound is recovered              
D.become ugly
57.Some criminals remove their own finger-prints byB.
A.using printer's ink                                
B.injuring the inner skin
C.damaging the outer skin                           
D.damaging the color

1.Everyone knows you must exercise regularly to keep good health.Indeed,staying physically fit is a big part of our culture,we consider (or rightly so) that healthy people are attractive people.Since most of us want to be attractive,there is no shortage of exercise clubs,training videos,magazines and books offering to help us stay physically fit.
Unfortunately,however,our culture doesn't place the same emphasis (重視) on mental fitness.Although we tend to like men and women with strong,healthy-looking bodies,we don't have the same degree of respect or attraction for smart,educated,mentally healthy people.This is a pity,because there are great rewards for people who have developed the ability to think well.
If your mind is well trained and flexible (靈活的),you will be able to understand a great deal of what happens around you.And if you are also well educated-that is,if you understand basic science,mathematics,music,art,literature,history and so on-you will find it much easier to make good decisions throughout your life.Over the long run,this leads to a sense of control over your destiny (命運(yùn)) and a much better life than otherwise (in another way).
People who are poorly educated or who don't think well-that is,people who are not mentally fit-see things differently.Their world is controlled by mysterious,often malevolent (惡意的) forces.Such people live within a system they will never master,forced to follow rules they will never understand.Although it may not be obvious,most spend their lives being manipulated (控制) by others.They are told what to do,what to think,how to spend their money,and what they should and should not aspire (渴望) to in life.
In my opinion,if you want to live well,you must be able to use your mind well.For this reason,I want you to be able to concentrate,to solve problems,to understand complex ideas,and to think clearly and quickly.Such skills will make it easier for you to make informed decisions,understand current events,choose good friends,manage your money well,make wise long-term decisions and appreciate music,art and literature.
The key to developing such skills is to enjoy learning,and to have the ability and motivation to teach yourself.
67.The writer of the passage feels disappointed thatC.
A.too little has been done to help people to keep physically fit
B.too much has been done to help people to keep physically fit
C.mentally healthy people are not as popular as physically healthy people
D.physically healthy people are not as popular as mentally healthy people
68.The underlined word"this"in the 3rd paragraph meansC.
A.the understanding of a great deal of what goes on around you
B.the understanding of basic science and mathematics
C.being able to make good decisions in life
D.good training in body and mind
69.The writer of this passage thinks those who are not mentally fitB.
A.live a poor and mysterious life       
B.can't control over their life
C.often do what others do           
D.enjoy being fooled and ruled
70.The best title of the passage will most probably beD.
A.Train Your Body                   
B.Think Hard and Work Hard
C.Make Informed Decisions

18.Dear Rudyard Kipling,
Father has consistently tried to instill(灌輸) a sense of being a man in me ever since I was very young.When I reached the age of twelve he began taking me to his auto body shop.He told me this tough job would build me into a man of character.But this all changed a year ago when my mother passed away and stumbled upon your poem,If.
My mother was the person who could understand me.If I ever got tired during my work hours at the shop I could call her to come and pick me up.It was my mother who instilled the love of literature and languages in me.My mother spoke six languages fluently and had thousands of books,which still sit in the attic of our house.It was in this"library"of hers that I picked up a book of poetry from a cold metal shelf and found your poem,If.
Because of the death of my mother I felt alone,as if I belonged to no family.The image of a man was completely shattered when I saw   him break down and cry,which looked so pathetic(凄慘的)and"unmanly"compared to his usual stoic(禁欲主義者)and emotionless countenance.Yet I remained silent remembering the golden words:"If you can keep your head when all about you/Are losing theirs and blaming it on you…you'll be a Man,my son!"
If reminded me to remain calm and"keep my head"because I wanted to be a man and wanted to be the one supporting my family.I sacrificed my ability to compete in a winter sport so that I could stay home and cook for my family and clean the house.My father saw this and our relationship has grown much stronger.He finally respected me for who I was and told me he was proud to have a man for his son.Through this poem,I realize that to be a man is not about putting weights on a barbell(杠鈴)but rather putting the weight of others on your back.
Your poem was so much more than just a simple list of guidelines or morals that some see it as; it really changed my life and my relationship with my dad.

41.According to the passage,what kind of person does the author's father expect him to be?A
A.A person who will shoulder responsibilities.
B.A person who knows how to earn a lot of money.
C.A person who knows how to do housework.
