But we were pleasantly surprised when we finally boarded the   18 , which was relatively modern and   19 . During the 14-hour ride we ate peanuts and talked. It was not   20  at all.
It was morning when we arrived. We stepped out of the railway station, having sat in hard seats and not getting much   21 . However, we had energy. First, we tried to get return tickets to Shanghai, but the tickets seller   22  us that tickets would not be on   23  for another two days. We were a little worried about getting   24  , but we made up our minds to   25  for the hotel to put our bags down. After fighting our way   26  the “gypsy” taxi driver who tried to   27  one hundred yuan for the ride, we found another taxi and it   28  cost us thirty yuan to get   29  we had planned to go. When we reached the hotel, there was a window for airplane and train tickets.   30 , the man behind the counter could get tickets that day, which we   31 . The most important lesson about China I ever   32  is to get someone to do your work for you, and it seems to work out much   33 . We were not able to get tickets, but the   34  agents could.
While in Beijing we saw a lot of places of interest, most of which were very   35 . It was fun to be with thousands of people in one place. There aren’t any words to describe it.

Most of my earliest childhood memories are of the beach — in the hot sun, building sandcastles, burying Dad in the sand.
Now the coast has a pleasant and relaxing attraction beyond words. I look forward to a windy cliff-top walk or a rainy day rock-picking just as much as those rare moments when I get to a short sleep in the sun. But there’s nothing more pleasurable than turning up at a beach to find it deserted.
These are my favourite secret beaches — ones either not well known or take a bit of effort to get to. Most of those listed scored highly in the Marine Conservation Society Good Beach Guide 2009; the others are too secret even for them.
Sennen Clove is just a mile northeast of Land’s End, the westernmost point of mainland England. It’s a beautiful spot, with white sands, deep green sea and amazing sunsets over the Isles (群島) of Scilly, 28 miles away.
The west-facing beach is popular with surfers, with bigger waves and winds often found at the Gwenver end. There’s a beach restaurant with good views of the bay and the sunsets.
The smallest of Isles of Scilly, Bryher is a mile long, half a mile wide — and a natural wilderness of unbelievable scenery. Walk along the narrow sandy roads to the eastern seaboard and you come to two quiet beaches.
Green Bay has views over to the palm trees of Tresco’s Abbey Gardens, and a little further south is Rushy Bay, a beautiful beach facing the deserted island of Samson.
On Bryher, farm shops sell locally grown produce, and they trust you to leave the money in the pot. It’s that kind of place.
小題1:The best title for this passage is ________.
A．The Beautiful British Isles
B．Secret Beaches on the British Isles
C．The Most Pleasurable Place in Britain
D．My Experience of Searching Beaches
小題2:According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A．The author is a tourist guide in a tourist agency.
B．The author likes walking on a rainy cliff-top most.
C．The author wrote the article to advertise for the beaches.
D．The author loves beaches that are not known to most people.
小題3:Which of the following maps can correctly describe the geography position?
(LE="Land’s" End    SC="Sennen" Cove        IS="the" Isles of Scilly)

小題4:In the author’s view, farmers on Bryher are ________.
A．sincereB．selfishC．courageousD．mean

Paparazzi, or "paps", are photographers who take pictures of famous people when they are not at the center of public attention. Paps are different from professional photographers or journalists because they never take ordinary photos.
The goal for paparazzi is to get pictures that no one else will get and then sell the pictures to the buyer who offers the most money —normally a small newspaper, magazine or website.
There is no law against paparazzi taking pictures in public places. However, there are laws that protect certain individuals. For example, child protection laws stop improper (不合適的) pictures of anyone under 16 from being published.
There is also no law that stops paparazzi from following celebrities (名人) and taking their pictures either. However, if paps are secretly following them and taking pictures of their faces, they could get into trouble.
Most paparazzi hang out on streets and hot spots for celebrities, waiting for the opportunity to take a picture of a star. Many stay on the streets until the early hours of the morning when celebrities are leaving nightclubs and looking a little worse for wear. However, some have other ways to make sure they get pictures. Many paps are in contact with "informers" who know the locations of celebrities at any given time. They then pass the information on to paparazzi. An informer could be anyone —from a restaurant waiter to a salesman.
Most of the time, paparazzi get a bad reputation for following celebrities. But sometimes stars or their managers will contact paps themselves and tell them exactly where and when they will go.
What a love-hate relationship between paparazzi and celebrities!
小題1:Which of the following things paparazzi might do would be against the law?
A．Taking pictures of famous people in public places.
B．Getting unsuitable pictures of a 10-year-old actress published.
C．Following a famous woman singer secretly and taking her pictures.
D．Hanging out at the places where celebrities often appear.
小題2:In order to earn big money a pap has to ________.
A．get the only first-hand pictures
B．sell the pictures to a big newspaper
C．make friends with famous people
D．know the locations of celebrities
小題3:The fifth paragraph mainly tells us ________.
A．how paparazzi get the pictures
B．how dangerous paparazzi’s job is
C．how much paparazzi pay for the pictures
D．how paparazzi contact informers
小題4:What can we infer from the passage?
A．Paparazzi always take pictures when famous people are tired.
B．Stars hate paparazzi and don’t want to be followed.
C．Paparazzi and famous people rely on each other sometimes.
D．Informers might get paparazzi into trouble.

In cities with rent control, the city government sets the maximum rent that a landlord (房東) can charge for an apartment. Supporters of rent control argue that it protects people who are living in apartment. Their rent cannot increase; therefore, they are not in danger of losing their homes. However, the critics say that after a long time, rent control may have negative effects. Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits. Therefore, they invest in other businesses where they can increase their profits. They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent-controlled. As a result, new apartments are not built. Many people who need apartments cannot find any. According to the critics, the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city.
Some experts argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way. The federal government sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers. The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled, low-paying jobs. However, if the minimum is high, employers may hire fewer workers. They will replace workers with machinery. Therefore, other things being equal, the number of workers that employers want decreases. Thus, critics hold the opinion that an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment. Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage.
Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity. Because of the law, workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum. Furthermore, employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at unfair wages.
Economic theory predicts the results of economic decision, such as decisions about farm production, rent control, and the minimum wage. The predictions may be corrected only if “other things are equal”. Economists do not agree on some of the predictions. They also do not agree on the value of different decisions. Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it. Economists do agree, however, that there are no simple answers to economic questions.
小題1:There is the possibility that setting maximum rent may________.
A．cause a shortage of apartments
B．worry those who rent apartments as homes.
C．increase the profits of landlords.
D．encourage landlords to invest in building apartments.
小題2:We can safely say that rent control_________.
A．will always benefit those who rent apartments.
B．is unnecessary.
C．will probably bring inactive effects in the long run.
D．is necessary under all conditions
小題3:There will be the problem of unemployment if ________________.
A．the minimum wage is set too high..
B．the minimum wage is set too early.
C．the workers are unskilled.
D．the maximum wage is set for poor workers.
小題4:The passage tells us about _______________.
A．the relationship between supply and demand.
B．the possible results of government controls.
C．the necessity of government control.
D．the urgency of getting rid of government control.
小題5:Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A．The results of economic decisions cannot always be predicted.
B．Minimum wage cannot always protect employees.
C．Economic theory can help predict the results of economic decision if other factors are not changing.
D．Economists usually have the same prediction about an economic decision.

The British are being encouraged to holiday at home as a major tourism drive offering Olympic themed discounts is launched next week.
A new campaign offering 20. 12% discounted bills at participating venues (場所) will be announced publicly for the first time by Culture Secretary Jeremy Hunt on Wednesday to encourage "staycations".
The scheme includes hotel accommodation, meals, guided tours and entry to attractions, with discounts funded by the industry. Government officials said more than three million hotel rooms were already lined up under the project, which is being backed by a range of companies, including Butlins. Attractions, such as the London Eye and Alton Towers, are also taking part. Reduced prices will also be offered on stays on the Royal yacht Britannia, now harboring in Leith, Edinburgh, and visits to Chatsworth, the historic house in Derbyshire.
Tourists will be able to take advantage of the discount by using a dedicated website before the end of the Paralympics on September 9 to make bookings for this year and 2013.
Mr. Hunt said, "With the Diamond Jubilee and the 2012 Olympic Games, this year is the perfect opportunity for more of us to holiday in the UK "
Mr. Hunt has travelled the UK, urging companies to take part in the scheme, telling them, "It's now or never for London tourism. We will never have a year like 2012 to show the world that this is, quite simply, the most exciting, vibrant, cosmopolitan city on the planet. The unavoidable complaints in the run up to an Olympics must not cloud the scale of the opportunity —including our biggest ever tourism marketing campaign to make sure we get a lasting benefit from being in the global spotlight. "
The scheme will be promoted by a ￡3 million television advertising campaign — the first of its kind in the UK.
The government hopes the " Holidays at Home are Great" campaign — launched by Visit England — will create 12, 000 jobs, create 5.3 million extra short overnight breaks, and generate ￡480 million in extra spending over three years.
小題1:What Mr. Hunt said indicates that        .
A．he has no interest in the scheme
B．he supports the idea of staycation
C．he doubts the benefit of the scheme
D．he cares most about London tourism
小題2:What does the underlined sentence (in Para. 6) mean?
A．London tourism will never have a precious opportunity.
B．It is too golden an opportunity for London tourism to lose.
C．It is now too late for London tourism to take this opportunity.
D．London has ever had a valuable opportunity like the one in 2012.
小題3:How will the "Holidays at Home are Great" campaign probably benefit London?
A．It will offer 20. 12% discount to travelers' expenses.
B．It will attract more international travelers to visit London.
C．It will create more job opportunities and bring in more money.
D．It will prove London the most exciting, vibrant, cosmopolitan city on earth.
小題4:In which section of a newspaper will this article be presented?

Some people argue that the pressures on international sportsmen and sportswomen kill the essence(本質(zhì)) of sport-seeking for personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. A single person’s representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself; he has to think only about winning. He is responsible for an entire nation’s hopes, dreams and fame.
A good example is the football World Cup. Football is the world’s most important sport. It is even more important now that the United States is seriously taking it up. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the greatest of international sporting success. Mention “Argentina” to someone and the chances are that he’ll think of football. In a sense, winning the World Cup “put Argentina on the map”.
Sports fans and supporters get quite irrational(失去理性的) about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1996. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses and spent all their money traveling to Argentina where the finals were played.
So am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sports? Certainly not! Do the Argentineans really believe that because eleven of their men proved that most skillful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others? Not really. But it’s known that you won, and that in one way at least your country is best.
小題1:What is the writer’s main purpose in the passage?
A．To explain the role of sport
B．To compare Scotland with Argentina
C．To show that Argentina is better than all others.
D．To prove that football is the world’s most important sport.
小題2:According to the passage, Argentina is world famous because of its ____.
A． clear position on the map
B． successes in the football World Cup
C． excellence at all important sports
D．large number of sports fans and supporters
小題3:According to the passage, if a sportsman thinks about winning, he will ____.
A．be irrationalB．be successful
C．fail to succeedD．lose enjoyment
小題4:What is the writer’s attitude towards international games?
A．Nations that meet on football are unlikely to meet on a battle field.
B．Nations that win in international games prove best on the sports field at least.
C．Nations that win the football World Cup are considered as best in all ways.
D．Nations that give much attention to international competitions are world-famous in many ways.
小題5: From this passage, we can infer that ____.
A．We should learn from England
B．We should play football only for fun, not for fame
C．We should learn from Argentina
D．We should give chances for other countries to win the World Cup
